Italy Italy Italy

i am thinking ...my friends know me really well!!! Opened my letterbox to find 2  postcards from Italy from 2 different friends who have never met each other. If i havent said it enough...i loooove italy . i am glad i started the tradition of sending postcards from my travels. To be honest it was not selfless :)  It started from a thought... from the  movie Amelie.  Over the years sometimes i sent postcards to even catch up with people i never had a chance to/have been lazy to talk to... for ages. My nephews and neices who cannot read have a pile of postcards to catch up with once they decipher alphabets :) ...Addresses are not that hard to find btw.

Its been a few years now and the idea has been a roaring success. Have to say almost everytime i open my letterbox i am pleasantly surprised to find post cards from random corners of the world. Like i said ,sometimes i have not spoken to them in months but they remembered me somehow :) After a while people started spicing it up for me by sending me puzzles, local music , shot glasses, book marks, a book on pole dancing (??? :)) , caricatures and the latest edition is a postcard jigsaw with a message on it...i am dying to read the message and  i cannot ! Not  till i finish it. Damn!

But ... for once i am glad to be me .

It's ok to be all about the 'I' - once in a while - I guess.

And the title is all about 'I'taly .. which wouldn't sum up to much without the 'I' after all.
