About Christina...

Hello! My name is Christina and I live in North Carolina with my husband and two boys, ages 7.5 and almost 12.

I started this PostCrossing project for my kids to find out about different countries. We're going to mark the locations of our sent & received postcards on a big world map and maybe one day, have 1 postcard from each country.

We're excited to check the mailbox & collect postcards from around the world.

It would be great if you would write more than the ID and Happy Postcrossing. I love to see different handwriting and reading about what you're doing, the weather where you live, favorite book, TV show, movie, blog, etc., something interesting about your city, anything!

* • * • * Year of The Dragon stamps are available only overseas so if you could affix one of those to my postcard, I'd be super excited!! * • * • *

Sending a smile requires no commitment, costs only a stamp and 5 minutes of your time.
