A few months ago I really thought about how neat it would be to get postcards from family and friends who lived all over the world. I did not feel like putting much effort into it. Tonight I was with my best friend as she was going to lead worship at a church and had a magazine that I purchased to keep me entertained. No more then the 4th page in I read a little blurb about a mom who was thrilled about an article explaining postcrossing.com, which enabled her kids to send postcards and get some in return from strangers around the world. This peeked my interest immediately and off I went on the Internet.
I signed up for the website and was so excited to see who I was going to get to send postcards to first. You are only allowed to send 5 at a time when you start out and after the person who receives your card registers it online, someone gets your address and a postcard is sent your way.
This blog is going to be how I help keep track of all of my postcards! I am also putting them in a photo album to keep them where I can look at them often.
I went ahead and bought my first 5 postcards (seen below) and will be going to the post office to send them out tomorrow - or today since its 3 a.m. The cards will be going to China, The Netherlands, Finland, Norway, and Michigan.
I finish each post card with All the best and then sign my name so it only seems appropriate to finish my blog posts the same way.
All The Best!
