Stamps Quest

Voila,today I'll be posting some of my stamp and miniature sheets collection that I 've collected so far.
Collecting stamp and first day cover are the most popular hobby in the world. First cover is a postal official with a stamp and postmark. It is also known as: FDC.Besides,it contains an information leaflet inside.
Just call me the avid stamp and first day cover collector .This hobby started when I was 10 years old till today.Besides collecting stamp booklets and first day cover,I do collect badges and keychains.

Mobile smart phone and a digital camera are the essential gadgets that can be count on in my adventures.Tablet are essential items to use whereby I search for the latest edition of stamp when I am travelling abroad.
However,the challenges of collecting stamps as it is  an expensive and continous hobby.Someone might spend as little or as much money to collect a  stamp from a specific country.Also,when someone's age increases,the tendency to collect stamp will decrease as we will be focusing on our work.Increasing number of stamp albums are consuming space storage.Rare and old stamps can also be obtained but are hard to find.There are possibilities of purchasing fake stamps.Some fake stamps are hard to spot.Care is needed to prevent stamps from damage.
 Where to get stamps?
  •  nearby post office 
  • an old envelope
  • stamp collector
Warning:You need a first day cover folder to store your first day collection.:)
 P.s:Actually I have a lot to show,but unfortunately I can't post it all up here.
When I am away,I love to watch news on Astro AEC Evening Edition
