Alright, alright!!

cos-mo-post-al-an [koz-muh-postal-en]: adjective/noun
1. a person
who belongs to all the world; not limited to just one part of the world; can make their home anywhere in the world.
2. a person who believes fully that postage stamps and mail connect the world, regardless of where, from or to, they go.
3. the joyful experience of knowing you're a local because your mail made it to its destination

The postage stamp is truly wonderful. It can travel the world, experience the lives of a million different people, go through the doors of strangers; and never once lose sight of where it's headed.
Welcome to the land of cosmopostalan : travel, mail and words. It's a crazy little place in my corner of the woods; wherever that may be!

Incoming and Outgoing

Before I unleash the joy of something fantastic, or extra-fantastic in this case--because mail is always fantastic, I would like to share my incoming and outgoing with you.

Incoming

 Above: From my dear aunt A., in Florida. Isn't that stationary the absolute best??
 
 Above: From the lovely B., in Boston. He made the entire envelope relate to "The Love Of Food". Genius.

 Above: As always, a lovely underwater experience from my dear A., in Australia.

 Above: A beautiful piece of mail from M., in Hawaii. I love her calligraphy! Isn't it gorgeous?? And I found it (am still finding it) hard to get over how wonderful the colours coordinate in this piece!! Gold, brown, black--perfect!!



Outgoing

 Above: To the lovely B., in Boston. Note the usage of my favourite stamp collection!

 Above: The A., in Australia. Halloween-themed!
 
Above: To aunt A., in Florida. Utilising those aerogrammes!!



Above: Some retro-drawings on their way to E., in Illinois, and M., in Hawaii!


A good mail week, I think! Can't wait to be receiving some more mail here soon!
Send mail!
