Direct Swap - Aland Island from Sini

Another swap I arranged through the forum in the summer, this time with Sini from Finland. She was travelling to Aland Islands and was offering to send cards from there. This is one of the many reasons I love this hobby. I had never even heard of the country let alone it's unique history. The card Sini chose for me shows Kastelholms slott. She was visiting the castle as her grandfather was performing with his choir there. The stamps she chose are very diverse, the scan doesn't show it but the beetle is raised.

  2. I have a different postcard with the same castle :) I bet that a choir performance in a castle is splendid...
