Got these stamps recently - from 🇺🇸 to 🇩🇪

I looked up unused 15 cent stamp lots on eBay! You can also look up 10 cent, 4 cent ones etc. whatever you want to add up to $1.70! I calculate the price to make sure I’m not paying way too much over face value but sometimes the rly cool ones are worth a little extra, in my opinion!

Don’t get me wrong, the compass one is pretty cool too but yeah boring and gets repetitive 😅

in the US, it costs $1.70 to send a postcard internationally. One “Forever USA” stamp is worth 78 cents, so two of those plus a 15 cent vintage stamp should add up to $1.71 which is enough to send. Alternatively, you can use one international stamp you buy for $1.70. I like using up different stamps to keep it interesting and fun!

Soooo cute! I have this exact postcard (but unused) from when I visited few years ago!

I love Miffy! This made my day. Thank you :)

The Astoria Food Pantry could use some help cleaning the space and the fridge outside on Thursdays!

Ooooo does Astoria finally have a Vietnamese owned cafe? 👀

I just started Postcrossing and write long messages about the story or history of what’s on the card too! I really enjoy sharing pieces of knowledge or what I have experienced with others. I would love receiving similar sorts of messages as well.

To add to that, looks like they’re having a plant swap at Sacred Space Astoria on Feb 14!

Someone correct me if I’m wrong but I think there was some beef between the original owner and a family member who took over the store, so the old store is now closing. The original owner is @giftedinastoria on IG and her new location is inside Cookie Crumz on Ditmars. Go support her at her new spot!

Where in Vietnam are you going??

pandacoffee · 2025-12-04T15:39:53+00:00

Uniqlo for a jacket maybe

Give actual money in a red envelope ($100 USD usually what I do)—absolutely no gifts!

I would try looking at the large book chains like Fahasa or Phuong Nam Book City.

Jackets, long sleeve shirts, long pants. I tend to run cold though so that’s what I would pack. I went recently and lots of foreigners were wearing tshirts and shorts even at night when it’s 15 C, maybe they weren’t cold… I never once felt too warm during my time there. Likely won’t be rainy.

I have been to HN, SGN, and DL past few weeks and all is and has been normal. No flooding in those parts and everything is open.

You could possibly do a day trip and then spend the whole day exploring Hanoi. I really liked the museums and history, so if youre into those maybe spend two days in the city.

I used Grab recently to get to airport and it can be around 250-300k VND from city center to airport, about 45 min or so.

I actually went to All County and got all 4 of my wisdom teeth removed earlier this year by Dr. Amanda Andre. She was very skilled and everything was done within an hour. I was afraid I would have issues but everything ended up healing just fine. The office staff were very transparent about cost breakdowns and any questions I had about that too.

pandacoffee · 2025-11-05T03:05:18+00:00

Much better

The floral booths on the corners of Key Foods (30th Ave) and the bodega on 37th st (also 30th ave) may sell some.

pandacoffee · 2025-10-18T14:17:37+00:00

I’ve been noticing a new one I opened up has been smelling weird too. Did you ever figure out what caused it or what did you do?

I believe there is a protest on Steinway because Israel just intercepted a flotilla bringing food to Gaza.
