About Eish...

South Africa has no less than eleven official languages. Eish! is the word all of them use to express surprise, wonder, irritation... The word seems to derive from languages of the oldest inhabitants of the country, the Khoi San (previously called Bushmen).

I love languages and this country is full of them. Here's a bit more about South African lingo:

Don't know what to send? Why not show me what your hobby is, some art or what you think is beautiful. How about sending me an unusual or daring card? (GLBT's, here's your chance!)
I always like to see what your town looks like. Frankly, generic landscapes are a bit boring.

I'm very fond of the simplicity of sending postcards - a picture, some stamps and a text - and will not send envelopes.

Sorry - no swaps.
