This is a nice postcard from Denmark that I got a while back, it's pretty interesting because it's square shaped, not very common
Incoming mail (and I'm back)
I'm back, I didn't fall off the face of earth, just was kind of busy with my job and a few new stuff here (some good news, some sad news)
But I'm back, and these are some of the letters that I got in the past few weeks/months

Outgoing mail
Yesterday I went to the Post Office to send a few letters and postcards that I wrote in the last few days: Vesna (Slovenia), Samrana (England), Barbara (Finland), Liz (Belarus), Manuela (Portugal) and Liao (China). I hope they will get them soon, although the girl at the post office told me that they would take between 6 and 8 weeks to be delivered ... Very slow, but I hope they'll get them safely.

This week I got a letter and some presents from Vesna, in Slovenia. It arrived quite fast, so it was nice. Besides the nice letter, she also included a bunch of address labels (even some with a camera and some with lovebirds), a nice postcard, a beautiful handmade bookmark and a brochure of her city.

Outgoing mail and good news
This week I sent just 2 letters: one to Germany and another one to Finland. But I've got good news: the girl at the Post Office told me that, starting tomorrow, we're able to send letters to all American countries again, and also Belarus and those suspended African countries !!! So I'm getting ready to send some postcards and letters this week.

Also, my friend Ines sent this envelope with a nice card and some postcards. I really enjoy writing with her, because we're learning a lot about each other cultures.
Still with our crappy mail service
Do you remember that we had some trouble with our postal service in Venezuela ? I wrote about it a while ago here. Well, it was supposed that we would be able to send mail to all American countries again, but at this time we still can't do that. But things are now worse: besides all American countries, now we can't send mail to certain African countries, and Belarus. I don't have pen pals in any of the banned African countries, but I have a new pal in Belarus and I can't send her anything at this moment. Today I'll write again to our postal service's customer office to see if they have a date for the resolution of this problem, and I'll keep you updated.

4 things #10
I'm back !!! It was a great week with my family at Cubiro, a small town in Lara State, here in Venezuela. I did everything I had planed: Ate a lot of good food (except goat), I took a lot of pictures (you can see a few here), had a great time with my family and I bought some nice handmade things (some for me, some for my girlfriend).
During the week I was away, I got I letter from the USA (I'll post about it later). I still don't know if I can send letters to America normally (I didn't have time to go to the post office, and I didn't get an answer yet to a mail that I sent to them).
So, this week I plan to:
1.- Write at least 2 letters.
2.- Get some new addresses on Postrcrossing and send the postcards.
3.- Update this blog more frequently.
4.- Keep updating my Flickr album.
