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!

“When COVID-19 hit, I was at my all-time low. No longer was I able to travel as freely as I once did with my family, and it felt as if the four walls of my room were my own prison. With Postcrossing, I'm able to "travel" from the safety of home and learn about other's cultures, backgrounds, walks of life, and whatever makes them smile. I'm excited to look inside my mailbox for a postcard, and I have a newfound appreciation for them. Postcrossing has opened my eyes and made me a better person. :)”
