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!

“The Postcrossing is really unique. Always wanted to travel and see the world, and here you do more than that. I know the world through postcards and still talk and meet people from around the world. Thanks!”
