I do not have in my profile words like "Please no handmade cards". As some of them are really nice and unique. For example, like this one. It's a self-made card from one of the club in a college where a sender has studied. That card is a brief map of her school. I like it!

National Taiwan University is a national co-educational research university located in Taipei, Taiwan. Its 1,086,167 m2 main campus is located in Taipei's Da'an District. In addition, the university has 6 other campuses in Taipei and elsewhere, with a total area of 345,830,000 m2. The University consists of 11 colleges, 54 departments, 103 graduate institutes and 4 research centers.

The university was founded in 1928 by the Japanese administration during the Japanese colonial era and was then known as the Taihoku (Taipei) Imperial University. After World War II, the government of the Republic of China resumed the administration of Taihoku University and reorganized and renamed it National Taiwan University on November 15, 1945.

NTU is often considered to be among the most prestigious universities in Taiwan. It has strong ties with the Academia Sinica.

Here are beautiful Taiwanese stamps:

Coimbra University

This interesting and beautiful card is sent to me by my friend Joao. Hey, friend, you send me more Portuguese cards than I receive via official postcrossing site, huh :)
