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!

“Postcrossing showed me, that we all share the same wishes and dreams. It doesn’t matter where we live. We are not that different!
Postcrossing is like building a bridge: It becomes much easier to understand other cultures when you know the people.
The best thing I ever started!”
