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!

“It's more than just a hobby: it's a therapy, something that helps me deal with the consequences of being socially isolated. It's a wonderful way to stay connected and to keep afloat. And it's definitely my favorite part of the day! :)”
