This card came from Krasnoyarsk, Russia. It shows national reserve "Stolby" which is translates as pillars from russian. Thank you Sofia!

This card is from my friend Lyuda from Russia. It shows a golden autumn in Minsk, Belarus. It's precious to me because you won't see an autumn like this in Israel and I miss all those colours now.

Russia, Altai

This card shows a beautiful sunset in the Altai Mountains in Russia and it was sent from Barnaul, the capital of Altai Republic. Thank you Anna for the card!

Russia

This card shows St. Petersburg in Russia in 1913. Look how people dressed and there are no cars at the street. I love watching retro photos, imagining what a life looked like back then.
You can see a view of Yekaterininsky Canal from the Kazan Bridge towards the Church of the Savior on the Blood.
Thank you Anna for this great card!

Well, one more chance to this blog. It seems I open it every two years in October and decide it'll be great to update it again. Then I forget about this blog and stop posting. I'll try again, see for how long I can stick to it this time.

Private swap from Lena from Kazan, Russia

Russian winter

Thanks to Alexandra from Russia for this winter landscape. With this heat I really wish for winter now!

Great drawing of the Statue of Peter the Great (The Bronze Horseman) in Saint Petersburg, Russia. The painter is Irina Esinevich. Thanks to Izolda for this beautiful card!

Svetlogorsk

This gorgeous sunset photo comes from Svetlogorsk - a town on the coast of the Baltic Sea in Russia's Kaliningrad Oblast. Thanks to Lika for the postcard. The stamps there are great too, all of them are related to sports - 3 from 2000 Sidney Olympic Games and one from 2010 Vancouver Games. So cool!

Lake Baikal

Such a beautiful view of the Lake Baikal, Russia! It's the biggest freshwater lake in the world, situated in Siberia. Thanks to Dima for this postcard.
