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?
- 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
“There is a magazine in Dutch with the name 'Flow'(about happiness and other choices in life), in which I read about 'Postcrossing'. I am so happy I discovered it! I like to write and to read, so I can't wait to open my mailbox every day, and hope I will find a postcard in it. I love the connection with other people and cultures! If Postcrossing didn't exist, someone had to invent it. Luckily we have Paolo and his team! Thanks for making me feel happy with Postcrossing!!”
