Tallinn

I am making this post for Katy because she sent this super cute heart shaped card :))

“Friendship makes world a better place“.. as the card says. I am happy to know you from GTKY thread also, Katy!! I must say GTKY girls are the most awesome bunch I have met in Postcrossing, apart from the old Underwear swap thread people, which most have disappeared anyway. In fact for 3 years I’ve been in Postcrossing I had never actually made friends with people (except the Malaysian community family).. and I don’t know what brought me, but only lately I have come to know Postcrossing actually means more than postcards. And more than underwear, of course. It’s called friendship :)

Since this lovely heart sent from Estonia, along with a lovely heart shaped keyring (oh I should have taken a pic of it, I got it from Katy’s lottery on GTKY thread!), I’m featuring here cards from Tallinn, the capital of Estonia.

From Estpost. This is the Kadriorg Palace and Kadriorg Park. It’s the former palace of Peter I of Russia, who built the palace in 1718 and it was called Ekaterinenthal in honor of Catherine I. It’s currently housing foreign art collection of the Estonian Art Museum.

From Enajpostcards, showing St. Catherine’s Passage with traditional café, hat maker and Estonian traditional costume.
