Worlwide Cultural Swap - packing the parcel

 We used plastic bags and an electric sealer to organise the items

our pressed national flower beach collection

 Gong Xi Fa Cai

I didn't know parcels had to be wrapped in brown paper and tied with a string. Luckily there was a bookshop next to the post office

Uncle Bookshop said he would wrap it up for us.

After weighing, lots of stamp licking and address writing, the parcels were sent of to the other exchangees.

Worldwide Cultural Swap

We are participating in a project that requires us to send parcels of stuff that is unique to our country to other familes  around the world.

Our collection from the beach to be packed into parcels for 5 families in our group.

Our National Flower was a must

Included in the parcel, besides, shells, corals and pressed flowers, was a RM1 Malaysian flag bought from a bookshop, a bookmark made by weavers from the MahMeri tribe from GeraiOA, Malaysian currency, stamps, AngPao packets, batik cards, keychain from Sarawak, spices (bunga lawang and cinnamon stick) and a bottle of minyak angin.
Our parcels will be heading to Georgia, California, France, South Africa and UK
