What is Postcrossing?

It's a project that allows you to send postcards and receive postcards back from random people around the world. Learn more.

How does it work?

  1. Request an address and a Postcard ID
  2. Mail a postcard to that address
  3. Receive a postcard from another postcrosser!
  4. Register the Postcard ID you have received
  5. Go to number 1 to receive more postcards!

“One of the best things every day is finding a postcard in your mailbox that someone picked out just for you. Even though you don’t know this person, you feel kind of connected. There’s just one bad thing about Postcrossing: the limit of sending postcards!
Long story short: I love Postcrossing and think every person should join!”
