Carol PostCrossing Journey: The Humor Monastery

The Humor Monastery - Romania.

The Assumption of the Virgin and of Saint George's Church.

The Humor Monastery is one of the oldest and most famous holy places in Bucovina, surrounded by a lively village that has protected it for 500 years. That's how they came into existence. First the monastery, then the village. Located on the ridge of a hill with trees and meadows, in a landscape of overwhelming beauty, it is one of the greatest attractions of this corner of the country. The monastery is a jewel in itself, a fresco of the Romanian spiritual world, one of the most important monasteries of the Moldavian Middle Ages, included for its cultural and spiritual value in the UNESCO World Heritage.

i was amazed by those special stamps! :)

Greetings from Land Below The Wind @ Sabah, I’m Carol, 48 and had lived all my life here in Borneo Island of Malaysia, wonderful place surrounding by the beauty of nature..nice & friendly peoples around.

My greatest passion..of course collecting postcard & stamps from all over the world! :) thanks to PostCrossing for giving such opportunity to all postcard lovers:) I do like traveling but I’m not lucky enough for that :), but somehow via postcrossing, feels like I have been traveling all around to so many place! :-)..its been 16 years since I joined postcrossing and my collection keeps growing immensely.. thanks to everyone!

It’s a great feeling to open my postbox and knowing that postcard is there (instead of bills, statements, invoices, etc…..). Postcard arrived from someone somewhere in this world, at least we have a good reason to visit post office more often than usual, don’t you? :)

Peace & Love from Borneo Island..
