On Tuesday I got seven postcards: two from France, four from Belgium and one from Italy.
One of the cards from France shows various views of Nantes. Nantes is a city in the region of Pays de la Loire. It is the sixth-largest city in France and is known for its quality of life. In 2013 it received the European Green Capital Award. Historically Nantes is known for the Edict of Nantes signed in 1598, which legalised the Protestantism in France. In the 18th century it was an important port for the French Atlantic slave trade.
With a nice stamp:
Year of the Rat (from set of two) (issued 20-01-2020)
with a special postmark from the philatelic shop in Nantes
On the same day I also got a cover with the second Year of the Rat stamp and a special postmark from the philatelic shop in Boulogne-sur-Mer.
Thank You very much William!
