Hello there! I received this postcard through direct swap, though I'm not sure if it got to my doorstep on 02/Aug/2016 or 03/Aug/2016; it was sent by Alexei, from Russia. This time it’s a Greetings From… postcard from his country.

And here are the stamps he used. The one on the top is a special one issued for Postcrossing.
After I decided to get GF postcards written in national/original
language, I received another one in Russian, sent by Elena.

And here are the stamps she used. She was kind enough to send me this postcard with a first day of issue cancellation (the day this Postcrossing stamp was first sold to the public).
Cheers!
Hello! On 21/Aug/2015 I received a postcard from Ukraine, sent by
Nataliya. Even though it’s all written in Russian (which took me a long
while to depicher, because her handwriting was cursive and some letters
have a different form in this style), she talks about her hometown near
the Dnieper River, and some fun facts about the place.

Hello! On 30/Mar/2015 I received a postcard from Russia, sent by
Tatyana. It shows the Gostiny Dom, a popular hotel in the city of
Bryansk. I liked this card because it was the first time I received a
content written in Russian, and since I don’t know this language, it
took me a while to figure all out; it was pretty exciting!
