When I was a kid, my mother would encourage me to collect stamps (as she had a collection, too). I'd buy packs of foreign stamps, and there were always always always stamps from Magyar Posta, which country I couldn't find in the atlas. But really, I was a very unenthusiastic enthusiast.
But now Hungary has the legend of Magyarország on their stamps ("Hungary" in Hungarian). And going by the belief that the country doesn't have to match the picture, I chose Hungary. (Hungarian stamps often feature foreign topics, and recently there were series of Japanese stamps that featured World Heritage sites, including Grand Canyon, the Pyramids and Angkor Wat.)
Of course, it's Mt Nantai and Lake Chuzenji, and I didn't actually get to the top of Halfmoon Mountain as from the car park it's an hour's climb. (I took a break from school as I had no morning classes.)
Sorry - I'm not expert enough with the time I have to add my own perforations. Expecting to finish around 17th (only seventeen entries at the moment).
