What is Postcrossing?
It's a project that allows you to send postcards and receive postcards back from random people around the world. That's real postcards, not electronic! Learn more.
How does it work?
- Request an address and a Postcard ID
- Mail a postcard to that address
- Receive a postcard from another postcrosser!
- Register the Postcard ID you have received
- Go to number 1 to receive more postcards!
Our happy members
“This is a wonderful way to meet others. Who knew I would befriend someone in India or Iraq. It's pretty amazing when you think about it. The fact that someone takes their time to put a smile on my face makes me want to spread that happiness onto someone else. If everyone would participate in this project, many would realize how wonderful people are.”
