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!

“Postcrossing brings back memory of my childhood before email and mobile phone. I used to have penpals from different countries. Nothing can beat receiving mail/postcard in your mailbox. The anticipation is part of the fun which email can never match.”
