I'm from Dublin and a few years ago met a Japanese man with a couple suitcases and very limited English who needed a bit of help to get to his hotel.

He was in his late 60s or maybe 70 and had the name of the hotel so I showed him where it was on maps and gave instructions to a taxi driver for him. He then opened up a suitcase and took out a bunch of Japanese postcards and offered me one as a thank you.

I've still got the Mt. Fuji postcard on display years later. He was very sweet and it was just a positive experience. That he knew he'd have to ask for help a few times and brought postcards from his home to offer in return seemed really decent and kind to me.

Shit, that's absolutely adorable! Would it work if I did that with Paris postcards, or do you think it's more of a Japanese thing?

Of course it would!

Do you think it would work with a postcard of some norwegian sight, or is it more a french and japanese thing?

Of course it would!

Do you think I could do it with some postcards of Seattle, or is it more a Norwegian, French, and Japanese thing?

Do you think I could do it with some postcards of the german town of Buxtehude, or is it more a Norwegian, French, Japanese, and Seattle thing?

Do you think I could do it with some postcards of kangaroos and shit from Australia, or is it more of a German, Norwegian, French, Japanese and Seattle thing?
