I was v. excited to get my first postcrossing postcards this week. They are just so random! I rather think that the people behind postcrossing are quite genius to have worked out how to create this system - and keep it going. I seem to have a nice steady flow now of postcards leaving and postcards arriving. It feels quite rhythmic.
My very first one arrived from Kimberly in Malibu - beachy!
And these two arrived on the same day: Historic Birmingham from Marcela in the UK; and The big escape from Stefan in Germany.
They have now joined my collection of random photos and cards on my kitchen wall. I am very, very pleased.... and looking forward to a wall that is chock-full of postcards from all around the world!
Are you into postcrossing too?
Love from Kaz
Ha! I've been negligent here--haven't been back in a while, but I love that you are getting post cards from all over the world! I feel like I have gotten lazy with the hand written thing, much as I love them, but I still love getting them!
ReplyDeleteWell, thanks for dropping by again. :-) Yes, I'm loving postcrossing, though it's quite different to real letter-writing. I think it satisfies me in other ways... like making friendly connections around the world, promoting peace and understanding, getting beautiful/quirky postcards to post on my wall. It's all good.
ReplyDeleteHi there!
ReplyDeleteI love Postcrossing, and the wide variety of cards that come, bringing their little smiles...
Indeed! Who would have thought such a simple thing could bring such pleasure? I think I have become addicted. As soon as I get a message to say one of my cards has been received, I'm straight onto the website to get a new address to send to, and I do my best to send it off that day.
