Map of the Camino Route


The Camino de Santiago, also known by the English names Way of St. James, St. James's Way, Route of Santiago de Compostela, and Road to Santiago,is the name of any of the pilgrimage routes (most commonly the Camino Francés or French route) to the shrine of the apostle St. James the Great in the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in Galicia in northwestern Spain, where tradition has it that the remains of the saint are buried. Many take up this route as a form of spiritual path or retreat, for their spiritual growth. Brazilian author Paulo Coelho wrote the book The Diary of a Magus (Magician) or The Pilgrimage based on his own experience along this way.

Special thanks to Michael of Starring You for sending this wonderful map card where
he completed his route of 780km! Also he met a friend of mine in Santiago, the
awesome Vero who has also sent me beautiful postcards of Santiago de Compostela .
Muchas gracias!

Indonesia delicacy


This delicious food card courtesy of Starring You reminds me of my trip to Java in August 2012. I enjoyed going
to the warungs to have a meal. Really great yummy food to eat. I was always surprise how different vegetables were cooked together in certain dishes. I think it's almost time for dinner. Great meetup card and a personalised stamp of Michael from Starring You :3

Audrey Hepburn

 

Audrey Hepburn  born Audrey Kathleen Ruston ( 4 May 1929 – 20 January 1993) was a British actress and humanitarian. Recognised as a film and fashion icon, Hepburn was active during Hollywood's Golden Age. She was ranked by the American Film Institute as the third greatest female screen legend in the history of American cinema and has been placed in the International Best Dressed List Hall of Fame. She is also regarded by some to be the most naturally beautiful woman of all time.
 
Hmm someone at the post office didn't like my Audrey Hepburn card :(
My favourite film of hers is "My Fair Lady" as we had to watch it in my
Literature in English class for the Pygmalion study. Thank you Rin
and to Starring You for starry starry blessings :D

Antartica

Several governments maintain permanent manned research stations on the continent. The number of people conducting and supporting scientific research and other work on the continent and its nearby islands varies from about 1,000 in winter to about 5,000 in the summer, giving it a population density between 0.00007 inhabitants per square kilometre (0.00018 /sq mi) and 0.00035 inhabitants per square kilometre (0.00091 /sq mi) at these times. Many of the stations are staffed year-round, the winter-over personnel typically arriving from their home countries for a one-year assignment. An Orthodox church, Trinity Church, opened in 2004 at the Russian Bellingshausen Station is also manned year-round by one or two priests, who are similarly rotated every year.

AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH
The biggest surprise in my mailbox yesterday, a Penguin and her egg

Special thanks to Starring You for this gem of a postcard!
