A to Z Blogging Challenge 2018: H is for Hello Kitty

(My theme for April's A to Z blogging challenge is postcards. If you want, read my intro post).

I'm not too much into cute, cartoony or Kawaii-type things, but I love Hello Kitty. I have several Hello Kitty postcards, but this one from Japan is probably my favorite. That's because of the story behind it. Here is what the sender wrote: "Greetings from Nagoya City, Japan. I bought this postcard at Hello Kitty Art Fair in Tokyo, 2012. Hope you'll like it."

Oh yes, I do indeed like it. The sender had it for five years, yet she chose to send it to me. Plus, I like knowing the story behind a certain postcard.
