Tales of the missing mail.

The joys of the Italian mail system. Just over a month ago, I mailed 13 post cards from the post office in Florence. I paid nearly 18 Euro and the lady at the counter put stamps on all of them. From there, I was in trusting that my letters from abroad would make it home safely. Each card featuring a specific picture and a heartfelt letter on the backside. I used all of the addresses that were sent to me via Facebook and only 2 of these arrived home.

Needless to say I am a bit pissed off that they didn't make it. And even more worried due to the fact I have a package headed back home with gifts, souvenirs, and all my notes from class.

Today I mailed off another set of post cards that I put together in Rome. This time, I placed the stamps on them myself and placed them in the mailbox. Here's to hoping they arrive safely.

If you would like for me to send you a post card and I do not have your address, please send it to me on facebook.
