Contrary to popular belief, traditional media (the postcard) is not dead. I know this because every hotel that I’ve stayed in save for budget accommodation still includes postcards in the room. I play a very small part in keeping this age-old tradition of collecting postcards alive by asking friends to send me one when they travel abroad. In the case of social media extraordinaire Geek In White I received not one but five postcards from Paris. Many thanks, Marul! (A special mention to Colin from Singapore who sent me one while holidaying in Brisbane).
As an assignment photographer, I enjoy travelling and meeting people from all over the world. If there’s one other thing I love doing when I am not airport-hopping, it’s getting postcards from cities that I hope to visit someday. If you would send me a postcard, I’d be more than happy to reciprocate the same with one from my humble abode, on request. As a added token of appreciation, I will add your piece to this post along with a caption of who and where it’s from (as soon as opportunity permits~been so swamped with work, I have no me time). Friends in Brunei are welcome to send me their favourite postcards too!
