I bought this post card in Palolem, Goa, without even knowing what it actually represented. The back says that it's a temple shop in Gokarna, Karnataka, India. Gokarna is one of the holiest cities in India, where hindus make pilgrimages. We were there on our previous trip to India and I absolutely loved it.

Mojeri

"Mojeri" is the traditional Indian shoe. This postcard shows a shoe shop in Rajastan.

Jaisalmer Fort

This fort is unusual in that people still live inside it's walls today.

Another postcard from Jaisalmer. The Fort looks like a sand castle...so magical.

Another postcard that I bought in Jaisalmer, Rajastan, India. This is the most famous house (haveli) in Jaisalmer. It's pretty amazing on the inside too. I was blown away by the architecture in Jaisalmer: it's like lace carved out of stone.

Nomads

A postcard that I bought from Jaisalmer, Rajastan. We were planning on going on a camel safari to the desert, but I had a slight case of "Delhi belly" so we had to skip it this time. We'll go next time for sure...

My Mom had bought these gorgeous napkins for my birthday dinner. They're so beautiful that I simply had to post.

This and the two previous cards were actually those small cards you put on gifts to show who they're from. They were all from my parents.

This Christmas card was for my husband, from my parents. Perhaps it was used as a package card, I'm not sure.
