MY FIRST TRAVELLING NOTEBOOK : FOLK TALES

Well, this is my first time to make a travelling notebook. And, i decided to make a theme, and that is Folk Tales Notebook. I think, it is very unique, because i can read it as substituter of novel. Yes, i love to read a novel. In the Notebook, the participant can write a folk tale from his/her country, but not the famous folk tales like Cinderella, Beauty and The Beast, The Sleeping Beauty, or Snow White. Because, i am very boring with that story. But, if the participant can write a new tale from famous tale to a new tale (i mean, if the participant will write a story of Cinderella, but the ending is different, for the example, the ending is Cinderella will be friend with Snow White, and they kill the Beast because they guess the Beast will kill them, and Belle was very sad and Belle sleep, sleep, and sleep, because she is very tired but she can't wake up before a prince kiss her. Then, Aladdin came to kiss Belle. And they live happily ever after).

ITALIAN POSTCARD : FLORENCE CATHEDRAL



THE PICTURE : The Basilica di Santa Maria del Fiore is the main church of Florence, Italy. Il Duomo di Firenze, as it is ordinarily called, was begun in 1296 in the Gothic style to the design of Arnolfo di Cambio and completed structurally in 1436 with the dome engineered by Filippo Brunelleschi. The exterior of the basilica is faced with polychrome marble panels in various shades of green and pink bordered by white and has an elaborate 19th-century Gothic Revival façade by Emilio De Fabris. The cathedral complex, located in Piazza del Duomo, includes the Baptistery and Giotto's Campanile. The three buildings are part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site covering the historic centre of Florence and are a major attraction to tourists visiting the region of Tuscany. The basilica is one of Italy's largest churches, and until development of new structural materials in the modern era, the dome was the largest in the world. It remains the largest brick dome ever constructed.

GERMAN POSTCARD : TIGER

THE PICTURE : The tiger (Panthera tigris) is the largest cat species, reaching a total body length of up to 3.38 m over curves and weighing up to 388.7 kg in the wild. Its most recognisable feature is a pattern of dark vertical stripes on reddish-orange fur with a lighter underside. The species is classified in the genus Panthera with the lion, leopard and jaguar. Tigers are apex predators, primarily preying on ungulates such as deer and bovids. They are territorial and generally solitary but social animals, often requiring large contiguous areas of habitat that support their prey requirements. This, coupled with the fact that they are indigenous to some of the more densely populated places on Earth, has caused significant conflicts with humans.
THE STAMP : It is Schloss Stolzenfels am Rhein stamp issued on 2nd January 2014.
