Where have you been for so long? 😃 As I can see from your first post in this community, this will be a long friendship as you have a lot of things to share here! From stamps, through art, pottery, coins, stones, etc.
My father was collecting stamps in the 1970s, and when my sister and I grew up, we took over that "hobby", but this what you said is so true:
My dad thought it was a great idea because it was a way for me to learn about geography, history and the cultures of many different corners of the world.
It's amazing how many details about some country/person can fit into those small stamps... And you can learn a lot from them!
