My nearest extended relatives are currently residing in Los Angeles, California. The eldest cousin of our closeknit family shares a similar birthday as me, same day and same month, in the exception of an eleven years age gap.
The other portions of our extended, large family are still within the country of Thailand, which is where my cousins are currently visiting for a few weeks with the youngest nieces and nephew, not to mention that they were also the most recent addition to our family 
… and THAT is the reason why I love/adore postcards!
