Request

To my cover-exchanging friends, please try as much as possible to
(1) WRITE THE ADDRESSES USING YOUR OWN HANDWRITING
as these give a more personal touch to the cover
(2) PLEASE DO NOT USE TAPE OR STICKERS ON THE REVERSE;
the Philippine postal service damages the cover with scribbling that highly devalues the aesthetic value of the cover, which is what I am after
(3) PLEASE TRY TO USE COMPLETE SETS
or at least same themes when sending covers, but it is okay if this is not possible or if this would be expensive, and
(4) PLEASE USE SMALL ENVELOPES,
not too small, but maybe around 4"x6" or something like that; big envelopes are not very attractive unless they have many stamps.
Thank you!

My first cover from the Middle East. This one's from Saudi Arabia.












The yellow stamps show the King Fahad/Fahd International Seaport at Yanbu.
The two definitive stamps below the yellow stamps show the Kaaba in Mecca, which Muslims journey to in order to fulfill the Hajj Pilgrimage, one of the five pillars of Islam.
