Today is Sunday and I dont expect to receive any mail, but fortunately due to Johor non-off day, I got a postcard from Germany! At first I was mistaken that the Postcrossing ID 'DE' stands for Denmark. Ms Sandra wrote:

"DE-4745276

Hello Wak!

Wishing you and your

family a merry 

Christmas and a happy

New Year!

Best wishes and many 

greetings from Germany.

Sandra"

But Sandra, I dont celebrate Christmas but thank you for the wish Happy New Year!

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2016 to all my friends and visitors!
This long weekend I managed to prepare and send 6 postcards to postcrossers all over the world.

3. Abderrazak Chabane, Biskra, Algeria (the Ubudiah Mosque)

**First of all, I want to give thanks to Ms Lenny (my blogger friend) who shows me the postcard crossing project. Thank you! :)

ALHAMDULILLAH. After a long holiday weekend, today I received 2 postcards inside my mailbox. The most anticipated postcard I ever received so far after almost 3 months in the Postcrossing project, finally I got a postcard from Malaysia. As my mentor and aspiration postcrosser, I introduce you Ms Lenny of Seremban. "Terimakasih cik kak Lenny kerana memberi tunjuk ajar untuk wak mulakan projek poskad ini. Tanpa cik kak Lenny yang baik hati, siapalah wak yg ini kan? Cik kak Lenny kannns."

"Hahaha feeling hantar ke oversea yer wak" - Lenny of Malaysia

At the same time, I also received postcard from Ms Mariana Lino for my first Direct Swap.

"16/12/2015
Hello, Ola!
Hope you like this
view of Fatima Church
that I visit several
times and
located about
40 kms from
my hometown.
All the best - Mariana."

Note. Link to the sending off the postcard to Ms Mariano can be found HERE.

Ironically both postcards (from Ms Lenny & Mariana) shows the sunset view on the postcard which is very beautiful and mentioned on my postcrossing profile.

Fatima Church, Portugal. The name of the town and parish is a rendition of the Arabic given name Fatima ( فاطمة Fāṭimah), reportedly the name of a Moorish princess who converted to Christianity (and also the name of a daughter of Muhammad). - Wikipedia

Note. On my way back home, I managed to post my 'direct swap' postcard to Ms Charne Van Eck of South Africa:

Last few days during the Christmas festival, I got postcrossers who are interested to swap postcards with me.

1. Gapongpang, Thailand (fruits)
2. Michelle, Colombia (Kertok)

And I got 1 address with postcrossing ID to Russia (above).
3. Nuralskaya Elena

SO today I send again another batch of direct swap postcards to Brunei and Thailand. Those are our neighborhood countries which I dont receive or send any postcard yet.

1. Ara Ahmad, Muara, Brunei (A man and his monkey)
2. Khwanruan Uamchuk, Sanburi, Chainat, Thailand (Kuala Lumpur scenery) Updated. 11.1.16. Received by Tle.

However, I forgot to snapshot the Khwanruan's postcard. ;(
