Saint Malo Postcard : Brittany's little charming town



Northwest of France, in the region of Brittany Lies a small city by the port known as Saint Malo. This is such a beautiful medieval city that finds an influx of tourists coming in during the summer.
I guess if you have time when you are around Paris and you enjoy the small charming town instead of the city here is the perfect place to visit.

Canada Postcards

Memories of Canada All seems like a blur to me, almost 14 years has passed since I set foot in the North American Country but it was quite special for me. It seems like traveling back then to north America was always three to four different flights.

Thank God with todays airlines we can finally be only 14 hours away! Now will enjoy some beautiful scenic photos thanks to the private swaps :)

Thanks to a private swap, I received this beautiful card from a small town of Hirosaki, 600 km from Tokyo, Japan.

Growing up with Japanese cartoons, we would see such backdrops to our cartoon, just seeing it on the card makes me realize how real such magical places exists!

Berlins Calling

As a frequent traveler to Germany, I never had the privilege of visiting them up north and my mailbox today luckily reminded me as two postcards came from Berlin today in the mailbox.

Berlin seems like such a vibrant and cultural city! Hopefully one day I will get to visit the German Capital, for now I can only live through my postcards.

Postcards from Bahrain

I have cards that come from every content imaginable! However, when it comes to my neighboring countries like Oman, Kuwait, Qatar and Bahrain, it is almost impossible for me to find any.

Which is why you cannot imagine how excited I was when my cousin came back from Manama, Bahrain and got me not one but three beautiful cards from Bahrain which I would like to share with you all!
