Sometimes it's best to lose yourself in the tiny. It keeps the world out; at the same time, it is the world.

Zeitgeist
After a successful first exchange, Carlos sent me a second letter. The first time, he sent me Brazilian stamps for New Zealand. This time, knowing my preference for older stamps, he enclosed a selection of older Italian, Danish and Canadian.
The deal that Carlos proposed was 200 for 100. Writing this post reminds me that I have yet to fulfill my end of the bargain. A stamp blog is indeed a boon to those of of us who are not entirely organized.
