France and Finland

Time to play catch up again! I've been MIA for a couple months. I only have about 6 cards to get posted but wanted to get them on before I start receiving some more. I want to start getting a little more active on postcrossing than I have been lately.

The first here is one from Montpellier, France that I received back in September through a private trade.





The second is an official card from Finland (FI-215736)

Virginia Flag

I received this Virginia flag card in a private swap. My first state flag.

Oh, Canada

I did a trade with someone from Canada and received this card. That is Moraine Lake and Wenkchemna Peaks. Looks like a beautiful place to visit!

Slovakia

I did a second trade with a girl form Slovakia and received these two cards.

Great Britian

Next up is an official card from Great Britian (GB-23032). Actually two cards! I list both of us on our postcrossing profile, so this fellow postcrosser was nice enough to send us each a card. Thank You!
