postcrossing

by | Apr 3, 2008 | Daily life, Interesting site

We read about the website postcrossing.com a few months back but finally signed up this week. We’ve shipped off five postcards (the maximum allowed at one time) to Finland, Austria, Germany, Hawaii, and The Netherlands. Once someone receives your postcard and registers it, you become the next available address for someone else. So, the more you send, the more you receive!

Interestingly, the hardest part was finding local postcards! We don’t live in a “touristy” area so it’s been a bit of a challenge to find a representative local postcard. Luckily, the Hallmark store just down the road has a huge selection. :)

If all goes well, we will be showcasing the cards we receive from all over the world, so stay tuned!
