(Re)collections: Postcards from Afar
By: Han & Kane
Synopsis
(Re)collections: Postcards from Afar is a self-published, 52-page zine designed and written by Han & Kane.
This zine is a compilation of the 42 postcards and stories they collected during their campaign, along with their recollections and thoughts on the exchanges they had.
This follows from their With Love, Postcards from Afar campaign where they invited friends, family, and strangers to support women’s rights and gender equality in Singapore by donating to AWARE Singapore. For every 5 – 10 SGD donated, they sent the donor a postcard containing a story from a stranger, as a form of connection. The postcards were written by people they met on their travels across Europe.
These are heartfelt stories and experiences that were shared with sincerity and vulnerability, which you can now read.

Contributor's Note
This set of postcards is collected as part of a fundraising campaign for AWARE. They are written by people whom the creators met while travelling in Europe. I'll always be inspired by their courage to talk to strangers and ask them to share their experiences with other strangers. May you feel warmth across borders, and maybe even comfort that you are not alone in your lived experiences/battles.
