SURPRISINGLY today I received postcard after going back from Friday prayer.

The first postcard is a GF (Greeting From Russia) card from Irina (istai) of Saint Petersburg, Russia. She wrote: "Hello Wak Tiga Lalat! My name is Irina, 23 29 y.o Next month I'll be 30 y.o. I like travelling, so I decide to meet my 30 years abroad. I'm going to Cuba! It will be my first time there. In Russia is a real winter now. We say 'real', because we think that real winter when it's snow and cold ;) So, it looks like you dont' have winter in Malaysia :) I wish you to live in harmony and do what you like! Have good weather! Happy postcrossing! - Irina 19 Jan 2016 -2 deg celcius"

I live in a town called Stevenage, located between Cambridge and London. I am sorry I dont have cards of landmark or historical sites. So I hope you wont mind this card of a typical building of London ;) Best wishes and happy postcrossing - Camille"
