What is Postcrossing?

Postcrossing is emerging as a new and cool hobby - "travel" the world without actually going anywhere, make new friends without actually meeting them or chatting with them online. Postcrossing is all about sending postcards...to anywhere in the world! You can send as many or as little that you want to addresses generated by the website. Some people may even request a specific postcard but fear not, if you can't find one just like the one they want, you can still send whatever you have available.
Best part - postcard sending is relatively cheap hobby (generally postcards can be found for less than a dollar....how many things can YOU buy for less than a dollar?)
Here, you will find a variety of postcard ideas. If something catches your eye, simply click on the image to learn more about the card and/or purchase.
ALL postcards listed here are $1 or less.
The goal of the Postcrossing Website
Here is the goal of the Postcrossing website as described by the webmasters:
"The goal of this project is to allow people to receive postcards from all over the world, for free. Well, almost free! The main idea is that: if you send a postcard, you will receive at least one back from a random Postcrosser from somewhere in the world.
Why? Because, like the author, there are lots of people who like to receive real mail.
The element of surprise of receiving postcards from different places in the world (many of which you probably have never heard of) can turn your mailbox into a box of surprises - and who wouldn't like that? "
Can't argue with that train of thought! :)

- LOL me too! But in this day and age I don't get nearly as many as I have in the past. I think that the postcrossing idea is pretty awesome :)
