The card was sent in December 2007 - unfortunately with no nickname on it - so sad! i can't remember from who i received it!
The card shows the perfect volcano Mayon in the Philippines - he's the most active volcano of the isles and has a perfect cone.

Also the stamp is really intersting - not the butterflies - nono they are common and we all know them - No look to the Scout stamp.
The sender wrote: Actually, it isn't use for mail purposes even though it is P2(?) you can include it in the mail but it's value its not counted. It is exclusive for collecting only ... every stamp that one will buy will serve as a donation to tuberculosis foundation!
 Unfortunately i can't found any further informations in the internet...
