Look at this postcard I sent to Taipei, Thailand from Vienna, Australia!
Why, I had a lovely vacation in Australia, thanks for asking!
It's really too bad that I didn't see any kangaroos in Australia, I mean I thought there would be a lot, as kangaroos' natural habitat is in the Alps, which separate Australia from New Zealand.
I guess I can't blame Australians for not knowing geography very well. I mean they are basically a huge island nation in the middle of Europe. But their capital city, Wienertown, is really lovely. I was surprised that it was so warm in August, what with it being in the southern hemisphere and all.
But seriously, my vacation in Greater Germany was great. The Prussians are so friendly!
There are so many famous Australian cities I didn't visit, such as Geneva and Europe. I thought it would be really cool to go to the outback or the Crocodile Dundee Theme Park (he's a famous Australian folk hero, everybody in Wienerville knows about him) but there wasn't time.
Did you know the people of Vienna, Australia are called "Vietnamese"?
Anyway next time I go to Australia, I will definitely be sure to send some postcards to Thailand so they'll be sent to Taiwan and therefore arrive faster - or maybe that only works in one direction. I'll also visit some famous cities such as Melbourne, Salzburg, Berlin and Kinshasa. I really love traditional Australian food, such as Sachertorte, Wienerschnitzel and emu jerky.
They have such a vibrant and mystical culture! So mysterious and inscrutable! It's really an exotic place to visit, it will change your life. Next time I want to really understand Australian culture on a deeper level by doing some castle tours and also kangaroo hunting. Bonjour!
Maybe I can teach them how to say "你好", which is a traditional Thai greeting. I don't think anyone in Greater Wienerston knows how to speak Thailandish.
The Austrian Post Office actually should know about Taiwan, it's even listed on their homepage. It used to be a much larger problem but I haven't had a problem even sending packages from Austria to Taiwan.
ReplyDeleteHowever, summer time is intern time, and many high schoolers use their free time in July and August to earn some money. During this time, I've experienced mistakes by the Post Office even just sending to domestic addresses.
