One-sided Swap
Lähetettyjä kortteja ja kirjeitä riittää vielä. Tällä kertaa on vuorossa tähän asti ainoa negatiivinen korttien vaihtoon liittyvä kokemukseni. Sain viime maaliskuussa viestin Interpals:ssä marokkolaiselta mieheltä, joka ehdotti postikorttien vaihtoa. Sovimme molemmat lähettävämme kaksi korttia. Lähetin omani pian ja kuukauden päästä kysyin niiden saapumisesta. Ne olivat päässeet perille. Marokosta ei kuitenkaan alkanut kuulua kortteja ja lopulta päätin kysyä, milloin ne on lähetty. Siinä vaiheessa henkilön Interpals-profiili oli kuitenkin jo poistettu. Kortteja en koskaan saanut, enkä tiedä tulinko huijatuksi vai katosivatko ne vain postissa. Harmi, koska tiedän että Marokossa on kauniita kortteja. Mutta ehkä joskus vielä saan kortin Marokosta vaikka Postcrossing:in kautta. Tässä kuitenkin vielä Marokkoon lähettämäni kortit:
I still have sent mail from last Spring/Summer I haven't posted about. And now I'm going to share my only bit of a negative experience with mail exchange. It was a postcard swap through Interpals. I got a message from a Moroccan man last March suggesting a swap. I agreed, we decided to swap two cards. I sent mine. A month later I asked if he had gotten my cards and he had. He didn't mention anything about sending his cards. Some more time went by and I decided to ask him when he had sent his cards. Well, by then his Interpals account had been removed. And I never received cards from him. I'm still not sure if I got fooled or if the cards just got lost in the mail. Anyway, it's a shame because I know there are beautiful, colorful cards in Morocco and I've never received any from there. But however, these are the cards I sent to Morocco:
Olin juuri tullut Madeiran matkalta, joten päätin lähettää yhden sieltä hankkimistani korteista.
I had just been on my Madeira trip and sent one of my Madeira cards.
Toisena korttina lähetin perinteisen lumimaiseman auringonlaskuineen.
The second card I sent was a traditional Finnish sunset snowscape card.
