Hurray! It’s our birthday! 🥳 Postcrossing celebrates 19 years of joy and connections today, and we’re marking the date with chocolate cookies… and a surprise!
But before that, a big thank you to all postcrossers for being part of this community and for helping make Postcrossing what it is today. It’s been 19 years of stories from around the world, 19 years of learning and sharing… and about one postcard received every 6 seconds — it feels unbelievable, doesn’t it?
Our gratitude goes also to the team and all the volunteers that make Postcrossing run smoothly — and to all of you who have supported the project financially over the years. We wouldn’t have made it this far without your help.
![It's our birthday! The image shows two mail carrier Playmobil figures standing with chocolate-covered donuts and a Happy Birthday sign. There are two lit candles on either side of the sign, creating a festive atmosphere.](http://s3.amazonaws.com/static2.postcrossing.com/blog/images/birthday.png)
So we hope you can take a moment today to celebrate this anniversary with a little dance, and maybe a cookie or three! And, of course, with postcards too!
Now, about that surprise…
If you were in Postcrossing over a decade ago, you might remember we used to have a small shop… which didn’t see much action, and ended up closing. In recent years though, more and more people have been asking us where they could get Postcrossing merchandising, and we ourselves have long felt that it would be nice to have a platform for the fun stuff we’ve always wanted to make.
Setting up the logistics of a global shop is not an easy feat, but after we found a partner with sustainable production practices and warehouses on a few different continents, the challenge became much simpler. Once we designed the products for our first collection, it still took us quite a while to work through all the (seemingly endless) bureaucracy, but today we’re finally ready to re-launch it.
So, welcome to the new Postcrossing shop!
![Postcrossing t-shirts The image shows a person wearing a white T-shirt with various Postcrossing themed T-shirt designs displayed around them. The designs feature different colors and graphics related to postcards and mail.](http://s3.amazonaws.com/static2.postcrossing.com/blog/images/slideshow_shop_tshirt.jpg)
![Postcrossing tote bags and mugs The image features a person holding a black tote bag with a Postcrossing design. Next to them, there are two more tote bags, one beige with a Postcrossing design and one black with I POSTCARD YOU design. Additionally, there are two mugs on a shelf, one with a Postcrossing theme and the other showing just the YOU! text.](http://s3.amazonaws.com/static2.postcrossing.com/blog/images/slideshow_shop_bags_mug.jpg)
We’re super excited about the shop relaunch, and we hope you are too — we can’t wait to see all the Postcrossing merch being worn by real postcrossers!! 😍
Now that the shop is in place, every purchase will help support the project and make room for even more postal awesomeness in the future. We have lots of ideas for cool products we want to make and look forward to working with designers to bring them to life. If you have suggestions of things you’d like to see in the shop (other than postcards), let us know in the comments below!
PS: This is a new adventure for us, as we are new to the whole e-commerce thing. Please be patient with us while we iron out all the kinks. 🙏

I am heading to York to celebrate the 19th anniversary of Postcrossing and even though I am still new to the Postcrossing game, I love receiving postcards and there's nothing more exciting than seeing your postcard being sent and arrived.
Happy birthday ! 19 years... unbelievable...
Paulo and Ana, thank you very much for this idea and the work you give for this hobby!!!!!!!!
Happy Birthday, dear Postcrossing! Such a great platform, such great people (in the team and users) and simply a great hobby! Looking forward to Postcrossing's 20th anniversary next year.
And what a cool surprise – I will order some merch to wear to my upcoming meet-ups for sure! :)
Happy birthday!!!
Thank you Paulo an Ana and all the team for being there, for making all this happen and for helping all of us send and receive joy every day. All the best 💝💝💝
Happy Birthday Postcrossing! Thanks for making me smile multiple times a week with postcards!
Happy Birthday 💙
Congratulations to Postcrossing on 19 years of fostering global friendships through the simple joy of postcards!🎊 Here's to many more years of connecting hearts and spreading smiles across borders.
Postcrossing - Uniting the world through Postcards💌 Best wishes & Sincere thanks to the Postcrossing team!! You're making our lives 🤗
Congratulations!
Happy Birthday =)
Van harte gefeliciteerd met je verjaardag Postcrossing! En nog vele jaren in gezondheid.
Happy Birthday, dear Postcrossing!
Happy birthday!
I love the shop (though my favorite bag is already sold out 🤣).
A huge thank you to make this idea live on.
And on we go writing postcards 📫.
Congrats! And thank you. So much fun.
Happy birthday! Look what you started! Amazing! 🤩 XXX
Happy birthday! I think it would be great if there's badge or keyring.
I wanna small thing that I could be with them always so I wanna show off that I'm a postcrosser lol (I hope someone notice me that I'm a postcrosser)
Happy birthday Postcrossing! Congratulation!
Thank you PC team for this beautiful adventure =)
So that's what the confetti on the site is about! HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Dear Paulo and Ana, and dedicated crew, thank you for creating the best of hobbies, that delights individuals and brings them into contact with like souls across the world!
Happy anniversary!
Happy anniversary!
Just a little but maybe obvious suggestion: the Postcrossing shop should sell postcards. The t-shirts and the mugs and all that it's OK, but that doesn't make the shop any different from every other merch shop. What characterizes Postcrossing are postcards, so they should have their place at the Postcrossing shop. And they'd be a good way to raise funds too. There are many postcrossers that like to collect meet-up postcards, there'll be for sure postcrossers that'd wish to get their hands on officialy-issued Postcrossing postcards.
Maybe is just me that I was a bit puzzled when I first saw the shop, but I think a Postcrossing shop without postcards is like a McDonald's without hamburguers.
In any case, congratulations for this step forward in this great proyect ^^.
Happy birthday dear Postcrossing! 😀
Happy Birthday, Postcrossing, Ana, Paolo and all the people who make it possible! And of course thank you to every postcrosser in this small world for smiles on everyone's faces and bringing joy 😊 📬✍️❤️🥰🎂
I am with you for almost 14 years now, with ups and downs I am still here ❤️
Greetings from 🇬🇷Greece!
Running to choose addresses 🤪
HAPPY BIRTHDAY from me, too!!!! What an amazing idea you had and what a great community it has become over the years! Thank you for this beautiful hobby - to keep my love of analogue and writing alive and share it with the world!!! To the next 19 years and more!! And congratulations to the relaunch of the shop. How great. Happy Postcrossing!!
Happy Birthday! I've only been here just over a year but I hope I'll be around for a long time to celebrate many more birthdays.
One small request for the shop - I know most t-shirts default to men's t-shirts, but considering that the majority of postcrossers are women, I find it interesting (or sad) that you do not offer women't t-shirts (usually better fitted, different necklines, smaller sleeves). As such I guess I'll be limited to a bag or mug.
Happy birthday, what a great enjoy!
And the shop looks great... today I will celebrate it, with sending a set of new postcards.🤩
Ana & Paulo "ihr seid 'ne Wucht". You make us feel like home in this community. Congratulations 🎉🎂💐 ألف مبروك
Happy birthday. Up to the next 19 years!
Dear Postcrossing,
sending a big and warm happy birthday wish from Malaysia. Congratulations on your new online store opening! The idea is wonderful.
It's wonderful! Happy postcrossing, dear friends!
Congratulations on 19 awesome years! Thank you very much Paulo, Ana and the Postcrossing team. You make the world better with your project.
And now we even can buy t-shirts and cups with the Postcrossing logo! I'm delighted and go see the shop now. :)
Happy Birthday!!!! Congratulations!!!
I'll definitly check out the shop.
Happy birthday dear Postcrossing! You are such a strong and healthy kid already. ❤️ Thanks to everyone from the postcrossing team!
The online shop is simply awesome, yay!
Happy birthday postcrossing!!! Wish you many more years of happiness and good moments togherher.
New shop is great! Thanks!
Happy Birthday!!!
Happy 19th Birthday to all of you who started this great adventure and to all of us who made it such a success. Due to my age I am not sure I will keep on another 19 years, but I will certainly try!!!
Happy 19th birthday
Happy 19th birthday, awesome Postcrossing people!! Postcrossing, for me, is the gift that keeps on giving years after years.
Smooth sailing with the shop! I have my eyes on the tote 😀
I second one of the posts above - postcards would be a great addition to the shop, especially postal themes with the Postcrossing logo.
Congratulations!
I hope the store could have some keychains, magnets, or even small pieces of jewelry (Postcrossing earring). And maybe some other stationary items, like pencil cases, pens, stamp storages.
Happy Birthday Postcrossing with this amazing feat! Wish you many more years with this incredible platform and now also the re-launch of the webshop! Cheers!♥♥♥
Aw how exciting! Happy birthday, postcrossing! Thrilled to hear about merch. Definitely going to work a purchase into the budget :)
I love the tote bags… designs are simple and jazzy at the same time! I’d love a large zipper or envelope style pouch to carry my postcards in when I pick them up from the post office. And a pen set to write my cards with!
Great idea to add postcards
Maybe car decals, like I’m a postcrosser
Happy Birthday to you for this great project, the Shop is a good idea , a keyholder with the Postcrossing logo would be nice and Postcards. Congratulation cioa from Italy.
Happy birthday! 🎊🎉🌹❤️
And congratulations on the new shop! I love it!
Postcrossing is such a wonderful hobby, you're able to meet people from all over the world and meet new friends. Keep it up!
Happy 19th Birthday beautiful people.
Celebrating my big 19 on August 11th with Postcrossing friends in Berlin.
Hip hip hurray for Postcrossing from the city of Groningen.
Have a wonderful day. If I still have money left after my trip to Valencia I might order a t shirt from the great new shop. Very cool to wear at a meetup. And what about hoodies?? Byyeeee
Happy birthday, and good luck with the new project. Suggestion: Small stickers with the postcrossing logo - suitable to use on postcards...?
Happy Birthday to Postcrossing! 19 years is amazing and thank you to all who started, and continue, this project. P.S. I agree that it would be great if postcards were sold in the Postcrossing shop! :)
Happy birthday!
So glad your vision has come to fruition. It will give us all an opportunity to support Postcrossing, the postal media platform we love
Congratulations and Happy Birthday to Postcrossing.Wishing Postcrossing and it's team a great future.
Happy Birthday Postcrossing! We are having a party here at home as my son turns 19 today as well and I turn 48. :-)
...and I love the things in the shop! You'll find me buying some stuff soon.
All the best on this sunny day from the very north of Germany!
Happy Birthday! Love the shop and looking forward to purchasing a shirt soon. Please put a link to the shop in the site menu so it's easy to find (newbies probably won't see this blog post).
😎
Congratulations on 19 wonderful years!
Product suggestions for your shop:
• Postcrossing stickers
• Postcrossing Washi tape
• Postcrossing pens
• Postcrossing stationery
Happy Birthday!
Thank you for all the hard work & the friendship(s).
Grateful for this site.
Love that the shop is opening!
Wishing you every good thing!

Happy, Happy Birthday, Postcrossing!!! So blessed and happy to have found you! And, congratulations on the launch of the Postcrossing shop!
Woo hoo, happy birthday and congratulations on the joy you've brought.
Happy Birthday! I agree with others who've mentioned that offering postcards, as well as T-shirts/clothing for both men and women as opposed to for a universal body type would be alf great value. I'd also add a request for some Postcrossing unique rubber stamp designs. I truly hope this works out well for the enterprise and helps to generate an ongoing revenue stream to support the project!
🌹Happy Birthday! 🎊
Thanks a lot to the team and all the volunteers!!🎉❤️
Happy birthday. I like the idea of starting up a new shop. A mug is already on its way to me.
Happy Birthday Postcrossing.
I am so glad to be part of this wonderful community. Thank you for this great project.
🤩😘🤩😘🤩😘💌💌💌😘🤩😘🤩😘🤩
Happy birthday and congratulations to you, Paulo and Ana and all the team - you are simply the best! 😀 You can be so proud of this worldwide project - bringing people together, making the world better!
Congratulations for the shop idea! I have some suggestions to that:
1. As earlier it was mentioned that people miss postcards there … Some time ago you asked people to create postcards what postcrossing means to them (I am not sure about the exact theme anymore) - however if I remember right you got hundreds of created postcards… what about taking the nicest, get the permission of the artists and print them for the shop?
2. I would love some small postcrossing items like keyring, stickers, rubberstamps, etc. as some low budget products which an organizer or participant of a meetup could use as a giveaway for the other participants.
3 I loved reading above about the idea of jewelry - image little tiny postcards as earrings or around the neck.
4. What about towels for sauna/pool - I am sure other people might get curious (website maybe should be mentioned on it as well?)
5. A pencilholder… I took a photo of mine, but. I guess here I cannot ad it - so if you should be interested, Ana and Paulo, please contact me via message.
And I am thinking of the very big postcrossing meetup planned in Berlin next year to celebrate 20 years of postcrossing - in my opinion, the shop should display its offer there as well! Sometimes the positive feeling of a meetup motivated to buy something 😉
Happy Birthday! 🥳🥳🥳
Thank you 🙏 for being there!
You make my life and the lives of others around the world brighter, bring so many smiles and happiness!
We love you very much 🫶❤️🫶
Happy Birthday!! I am so glad i found this amazing hobby!. To many many more wonderfull years!
What a great idea to have a shop! As a keychain and sticker collector, i would of course love to see that in the future :D .
Happy Birthday Postcrossing.
And thank you so much for your idea, Paulo and Ana. It's a wonderful hobby
Happy Birthday Postcrossing!!!
Thanks for making my life interesting and happy!

Happy birthday!
It's crazy to think that postcrossing is older than I am!!
Happy 19th birthday Postcrossing! I have only been a member for a little over a year but have loved every minute of it. Just one postcard with a special message can make someone’s day, as it has for me.
Thank you for such a wonderful community! It takes a lot of hard work to keep this going and I appreciate it very much.
Happy 19th Birthday, Postcrossing!
Happy 19th anniversary Postcrossing. To all the staff and hosts. Such a lovely community. :D

Happy Birthday, dear Postcrossing.
So great that there are T-Shirts available again. I bought one with the old postcrossing logo many, many years ago from the first shop :):) I am so glad that there will be T-Shirts available again. Postcards can be bought everywhere, but Postcrossing-T-Shirts only here. :) Thank you very much.
Happy Birthday to all 📬🎉

I am not so active anymore, but i made friends for life here, in real time too 💞

Happy Birthday to Postcrossing- a constant in my life for almost 10 years! I celebrate your stick-to-it-tiveness Ana and Paolo…and thank all of your crew. What joy and comfort to feel so connected through Postcrossing… it has given me and SO many a reason to write on, appreciate stamps and a thrill in buying Postcards! Please carry postcards in your shop! However I have my postal eye on one of those tee shirts! Cheers!
Thank you very much & happy birthday.
Happy Birthday Postcrossing

Very happy birthday Postcrossing! 🥳 Here’s to many more years to come! 🥂
Happy Birthday!!!
We have spent many happy years here. Happy birthday, this is our shared beautiful memory.
Happy birthday Postcrossing. Thank you for your existence. I've been with you for 7 years and wouldn't want to miss this hobby. As I am very housebound due to illness, Postcrossing is my way of travelling and connecting with people.
I would also like to take this opportunity to thank my sister @toggi for bringing me here :-*
I hope you will continue to run this platform for many years to come. The world would be a bleaker place without you
Happy 19 years! Can’t believe it’s been that long! :)
I would love to see this in the shop:
-stickers
-enamel pins
-washi tape
Maybe y’all should have a design contest and the design can be used on all the merch!
And I join the congratulations and wish you happy 19 project years! Having first heard + joined Postcrossing in 2016 + since then having been an on-and-off member, this site stays the most secure and important one in my personal worldwide exchange search!
Little remark: please don't change the core of what makes Postcrossing.
The idea of the E-shop is truely amazing, however it would be adorable to see postcards offered there beside the other merch.. As some already said.
You could for example offer a range of (or a variation) of depiction of the Postcrossing logo on cards in the shop.
Just suggesting.
Here's to never stop snail mail! Thank you! 💐
Happy Birthday!!! Yay for a shop.. I just ordered my 1st Tshirt... Love it!!
Hyvää syntymäpäivää postcrossing! 🥳 I just ordered a t-shirt.
Awesome! Awesome!
CONGRATS for 19 years of staying with all of us as your hard work, born of a caring and generous spirit, makes it possible for each of us to make positive connections with others around this fragile planet!
An outstanding accomplishment that brings light and joy and smiles, all because you had a vision and followed through. Never easy. Absolutely magical and important.
Thank you so much!
Postcrossing was a beacon of light for me during the pandemic. So glad I was introduced to you and have stayed as I still find light and joy as a member of this remarkable community that you have built.
IDEAS: pens, pencils and stationery. Yes, I would especially loved to have some Postcrossing stationery. Note pads about 5 x 7". Don't forget to include your web link on it! ;-)
Happy birthday Postcrossing! You have opened the world for so many. Now off to the shop!
Happy Birthday Postcrossing!!!
I would also love to see postcrossing postcards, stickers, washi tape in your store. Please!
Congrats!!! The shop idea is very cool, however, most of the items are things I would not purchase. If the shop sold postcrossing official postcards then I would DEFINITELY buy those though!
wauw .... time flies .....
I remember the 10th anniversary very well -
HAPPY BIRTHDAY
and don't forget to enjoy what you reached:
making so many people very happy wórldwide
by the idea of - postcrossing - !

Omggg! Awesome! And happy birthday Postcrossing ❤️❤️
Happy Birthday. Glad to be part of this community. Love looking for postcards and sent them all over the world and happy to find one in my own mailbox when I get home after a bizzy day.
Hope you will ad some buttons or pins with the postcrossing logo, to the shop.
I'm impressed there's no postcards in the shop!
Happy Birthday!!!! I am so glad to be part of it. Since I joined in 2016 I learned a lot about other people and geography. I never want to miss it.
A heartfelt thank you, dear Postcrossing, to you and all your creators and collaborators for making all this possible, and a big "happy birthday" from the heart!
I would like to be a more constant and continuous correspondent, and there are long periods when I just can't find time for this beautiful community, sending and receiving postcards.
But just because Postcrossing exists, it makes the world a little better!
Warm greetings from Rome, Italy
Happy Birthday! And best wishes for many more!
Happy Birthday! Merch!!!!! How exciting!
Very exciting! A big thank you to everyone working on Postcrossing behind the scenes to keep everything running smoothly. 19 years down and many more to come! 🎉

Thanks to everyone for staying curious for each other and for reaching out and connecting in beautiful ways :)
As for suggestions for the shop relaunch (congrats! :)
Thinking of all the letter writers and pen pal people in this community and thinking of how many of us still receive letters on a daily to weekly basis:
Could a neat letter opener be an(other) idea?
happy birthday postcrossing
Congratulations. I feel a shopping spree coming on.............
Happy Birthday!!
Perhaps more shirt options? Long sleeved? V-neck? Hoodie?
Thanks!!
Parabéns pelo seu aniversário, Postcrossing!

🥳 Paulo and Ana and team thank you! I am very happy being a Postcrosser 😄
So happy to have discovered Postcrossing! Happy 19th birthday, you're still a teenager :D
Happy 19th Birthday, Happy Postcrossing! It is amazing what you have achieved, Paulo and Ana, I can't thank you enough!
Happy Birthday Post Crossing! Thank you this platform that genuinely spreads happiness around the world! Excited for the shop!!
Happy 19th Birthday Postcrossing!!!!!
I also love all the new merch and will definitely get my shirt.
Is there gonna be a special design for next year's 20th Anniversary?bec that's gonna be a quite milestone and would love to have a limited merch just for that.
For 15 years as a Postcrosser, I am reminded it all started with a Lighthouse. Many Happy Returns on your 19th Birthday! And YIPPPPEEE -- a Shop! T-shirts and mugs and other stuff -- Oh My! Best wishes for a great Re-Launch. (Don't forget CAPS). . .
however, since PaperSisters already has a great selection of postcards, washi tape, stamps, etc. maybe the Postcrossing Shop might include a "shelf" or an "aisle" for Maike & Wiebke to satisfy those wishing such item, at least, for now.
Congratulations to All Postcrossers.
Congratulations! Happy Birthday!
I'm excited to shop. I've seen it mentioned but I'll second (or third or whatever: )), stickers and washi tape. And postcards.
Happy birthday Postcrossing! I just ordered a shirt. So excited!
Congratulations Postcrossing!
Happy Birthday and Congratulations Postcrossing <3
Happy Birthday!!!
Thank you/Obrigado Paulo an Ana and all the team for creating this open space for postcards fans, for making all this happen and for helping all of us send and receive postcards and being friends and ambassadors every day.
Salutes 👌
Happy Belated 19th Birthday to a wonderful project xxx
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for this great project. Thank you for the many friendly encounters and moments of happiness that I was able to experience.
You, dear Paulo and your hard-working helpers, have long since deserved the Nobel Peace Prize for this wonderful idea and its implementation, because we can all make the world a little more peaceful through it.
Buon compleanno POSTCROSSING !!!!!!!!
Happy 19 years of Postcrossings.
Like many who have commented here, I was so very lucky to find Postcrossings during the pandemic, to be a part of a global community but each express our uniqueness and our passion for our local areas is brilliant.
As mentioned in these comments already by others, product suggestions of a large zipper or envelope style pouch to carry postcards in to & from the Postoffice and a pen to write with. Made of recycled materials would be awesome.
I am sure there is a book in here too for your 20th anniversary of your journey in creating this wonderful community. I recently bought a book, Lockdown Secrets; Postcards from the Pandemic and now thanks to Postcrossings am always on the lookout for vintage & unique postcards. A quick last minute suggestion, "be the Etsy" of the postcard world to allow artists and makers to sell their designs and support local talent. I have received some beautiful postcards from local artists which all adds to the true magic of your and our shared Postcrossings world.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY POSTCROSSING!
Thanks to the Postcrossing team that made this project possible. I have been here for 14 years and I thank everyone for the postcards sent.I have really enriched my knowledge about the wonderful places around the globe. I wish a long life of this project which has become a hobby for me and with which children from all schools are also familiar. I realized this project with my students who were delighted to be able to exchange ideas, opinions and postcards with children from all over the world.We are all united in a lasting friendship thanks to this wonderful project.
THANK YOU POSTCROSSING!
Happy 19th birthday anniversary! 🥳🥳🥳 Thank you 💗
Happy birthday!!!! Thanks for all the joy! May you have plenty on your birthday. Heading to the shop now :D

Congratulations, Ana and Paolo and the entire Postcrossing team. Your hard work and dedication have truly created a universe of kindness and good will at a time when our world needs these more than ever. Here's to the next 19 (or more!) Thank you.
yall should consider designing your own postcards to sell. You could even have your postcrossing community design their own art and feature it on your postcard or products :)
Dear friends, on July 11th I had a visit from the local newspaper in Delmenhorst. People there were interested in unusual hobbies, so I told them about postcrossing. Once the newspaper article is printed, I will be happy to send you a copy :-)
I look forward to the next years with you - thank you so much for your
idea !!!
Warm greetings from Ina
Happy 19th Birthday, Postcrossing!
Congratulations on reaching another milestone and on the grand opening of your new shop.

Happy Birthday Postcrossing! I just recently started my journey here but I've already gotten in touch with so many kind people from all over the globe. Every new card in the mailbox is a little surprise - Thank you for making these international connections possible! I'd love to see some postcards in the merchandise shop one day and maybe also albums or boxes to collect them? Possibilities are endless :-)
Happy birthday! I’m part of it since 2008 and made many friends through meet-up.
Next one tomorrow in Bokrijk (Belgium), already excited.
A huge Happy Birthday to Postcrossing, my newest & favourite hobby! Thanks for spreading joy & happiness around the world, & making people smile. May you have many more birthdays to spread the ❤️!
I can't wait to order items from the online shop. I suggest adding stickers featuring:
Postcrossing logo
"I ❤️ Postcrossing"
"Happy Postcrossing!"
"Sending 😊 to your 📬"
"Sending ❤️ to your 📬"
Happy birthday and a lot of nice postcards.....
Today, all of us who send postcrossing postcards can celebrate....
"Happy Postcrossing from Slovenia!"
I ordered some stuff as soon as I saw the news and I'm now in possession of: a cup, a t-shirt and a shopper/shopping bag, all with the Postcrossing logo. I'm so happy, thank you all for doing this!!
Happy birthday, Postcrossing! Love the new shop! Would love to see a bag with a zipper, decal for my computer / mug / car, and maybe some earrings or something like that, and a small, maybe 15 cm tall seated stuffed animal with a Postcrossing shirt who could hold our pen.
Agree with the person who suggested postcards from meetups. Not sure if someone suggested the Postcrossing stamps and Maxicards issued by various countries. (I haven't read all 180+ comments.)
I’m sure I’m echoing some of others’ feedback, but then I guess that means it’s a good idea. 😉
Ideas for shop items:
• Stickers & washi tape
• ID stamp(s)
• Postcards
• Binders for saving received postcards or organizing to-send postcards
• Pens, especially either colors or erasable ink
My greeting is coming too late, bt anyway Happy Birthday,
I like the shopping idea, I would love to order, but unfortunately, I cannot order anything because, no postcards incoming to Palestine, so I am sure the other gifts, parcels will never arrive.
Thank you poscrossing ❤

Happy birthday!!
This is my first year in Postcrossing.
Postcrossing's 19th birthday, my first birthday with Postcrossing. HaHaHa, it's so happy.
I wish you happiness and peace everywhere in the world.
