Comment by Jean-Philippe Gilliot on October 19, 2021 at 7:09pm: Sure ! I completly understand the airmail/borders closes problem

Comment by Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat) on October 19, 2021 at 2:19pm: and because of Covid times and not frequent flights,

air mail from Greece even to Belgium can take such a loooong time!

Real "snail mail"!

Comment by William M on October 19, 2021 at 1:22pm: yes, jean-philippe, it's covid related. basically the lack of flights means there's no regular airmail service to certain countries. so this means sadly, most of europe. some countries have ems service or parcel service but it's more expensive to send that way. our borders are still pretty much closed to regular travellers. if that changes hopefully that'll mean the mail service to other countries will too. it's hard to say.

Comment by Jean-Philippe Gilliot on October 19, 2021 at 11:11am: Is it COVID "safety" related ???

Comment by William M on October 16, 2021 at 2:36pm: he sent me one of those things documenting mail art as well. i like that idea. sadly, still no mail from here to belgium(see katerina - it's not just greece!)
