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!
Our happy members
“There is so much love I want to give to Postcrossing. There is nothing like brighten up a bad day by coming home from work and finding a postcard in my mailbox. I love to read the messages the most, to get a glimse into other parts of the world and other peoples lives. Some stories are just so wonderful. I've gotten 3 colleagues to join and one of them sent their first card yesterday.”
