PFF – Vejen der ikke starter i hjertet…

June 5th, 2009 by ilyani | 20 Comments | Filed in Denmark

I received these AWESOME cards from Smist in 2006 and may I repeat, I LOVE cards written on it in languages strange to me.. in fact I love the idea of Postcrossing not only I can get to see pictures of places faraway on postcards.. but get familiar with the languages as well! Especially the European languages, yes, which I don’t see a sight of anywhere here.. except English. So I am glad I keep postcards of them! Okay – nevermind that I don’t learn every single language in this world, but I feel smart enough when I can distiguish a text, say, in French, from German! :P (tell you, my friends here won’t manage that!) Anyway, here comes Danish! :D

“Vejen der ikke starter i hjertet ender blindt”
“The course that does not begin in the heart ends in a blind alley”.

These cards were published by a university in Denmark to say that the education you choose should feel *right* to your heart :) Of course, it doesn’t make sense to spend years studying something you don’t feel close to your heart, no?

And another card with the same quote, only written with many different languages!! Ain’t this cool? :) But I don’t see Malay in here, hmm.. that would be more or less, “Pembelajaran yang tidak bermula dari hati akan berakhir dengan kegelapan”..

Now that my subject is language, how do you say “HAPPY POSTCARD FRIENDSHIP FRIDAY” in your language? (if it’s not English ;))

Selamat Hari Jumaat Persahabatan Poskad!! :D

Winter fairytale

March 14th, 2009 by ilyani | No Comments | Filed in Denmark

Ooooooooh I just have to put this house card from Denmark simply because is it really really pretty! I want to live in house like this! With snow! :D

From Gforp. Though it doesn’t say in this card where this pic was taken, Genek used to see exactly the same hourse in a forest on Bornholm. And this card actually comes with a title “Winterfairytale“. Well, the lovely picture speaks it all :) Ummm at least I was hoping for Haris to get some snow for me when I sent him to Europe, no.. A LOT of snow actually, like in this white forest.. but he was a bit too late that now snow is melting!! Sigh.

Copenhagen

February 2nd, 2009 by ilyani | No Comments | Filed in Denmark

Two of my postcards from Denmark are actually the same place in Copenhagen with photos taken from different angle (see in these postcards the buildings are identical). It’s a historical canal harbor or quarter called Nyhavn (New Harbor) and one of the most visited places in Copenhagen.

From Smist. This was the first card I received from Denmark (Jan 2006) which she sent along with a mix CD.

From Seglare. I knew her living and studying in Finland and now that she returned to Denmark she just had to send me her first card from there! :)
