My First postcard received from Slovenia! The postcard shows a view of Piran, one of the major towns in this country. The town has much medieval architecture, with narrow streets and compact houses.
The stamps are also beautiful. They are all from a series which is about flower released in 2007. The first one shows asplenium adulterinum , the second one shows primula carniolica (seems this kind of flower could only be found in this country), and the last one shows cerastium dinaricum, seems it is another kind of flower that could only be found in Slovenia and the population of this kind of flower is decreasing.

A postcard from Poland and it is my first postcard received from there. This postcard shows a map of the country, with photos of famous places in the country.
The stamps are also beautiful! They are all from a series called “Polish Alphabet” released in 2006. Balwan means snowman; Cytryna means lemon; Ćwiartka, means a quarter; Lekcja, means lesson; And Echo, it carries the same meaning as English.

Here is a very nice postcard from the Netherlands, showing a relaxing scene in the Netherlands, with animals living there peacefully and with harmony. Nijkerk is a small town in the middle part of the country.
Here comes the stamps. The middle one was released in 2008, from the series about environmental protection. The word in the sun is “zonnecollector”, meaning the Solar thermal collector. “denk groen doe groen”, i guess is the slogan, with similar meaning of think green and participate in environmental protection activities. The stamp on the right hand side was released in 2011, from a series featuring children. There are 6 stamps from the same series. And a picture of house would be formed when you put the stamps in right order.

A postcard from the Netherlands! The postcard shows the Gebouw Veenkoloniaal Museum. The building was orginally a high school campus. And now it turns to be a museum, telling visitors about the story of Groningen – a city in the Netherlands.
