I started a Travel the World card series in 2019, committing to virtually visit a different randomly-selected country each week (for 50 weeks), gathering tidbits of information about the country. I love to travel and this is one way I can "visit" countries that I might otherwise never see. As I learn about each country, I choose something about that country as inspiration for a card.
There are 195 countries in the world so in the first two years of this series I've "visited 100 countries, which means I still have quite a few to go.
This card is inspired by Zimbabwe where there is a strong belief that mermaids exist. In fact, they are often blamed for unfortunate events such as kidnapping, torture and murder.
Please visit my blog for more photos/information about both Zimbabwe and my card...
