For quite a long time,I was very envious when I viewed blogs about stamps and covers but, finally I am able to create my own. To all stamp/cover collectors and philatelists alike, we all know how much FUN we get out of this!

This envelope was sent by a friend. This is my friend's letter and he mailed it to me. Since it is a window envelope and then I made it addressed to it. I liked the clear postmark. Thanks!

Another visitor in my blog sent me this. Thanks a lot!! I'll send you something in exchange but that would be at the end of September. I am really busy right now. Thanks a lot!
Germany
First of all, I would like to say thank you for the one who sent me this cover from Germany. He is a visitor of my blog. In his letter he told that he sent me this cover because my other German cover is not good, yeah he is right. This is my only second time to received a cover from this country. Thanks a lot!! I will send you a cover for sure but that would be at the end of September because I am really busy right now. Once again, thank you!
Poland
Mirek sent me this cover from Poland. This could have been better if all of the stamps were canceled. Anyway, Thanks!!
United States of America
JP have sent me really nice covers from USA. Eventhough the US is a common country which we received covers, I still like it especially if the postmark is clear like this one and it has no wavy cancellation lines. Thanks JP!
India
A viewer of my blog sent me this cover India. I wasn't expecting this, anyway many thanks to the sender. I am not really a big fan of Indian Philately maybe because of the quality of their stamps are printed.
