Post Crossing Happiness!!
Do you remember this from a few weeks ago? I sent a "fistful" of postcards out to mainly Germany and Russia... It ALWAYS pays off!
Here is some recent incoming Post Crossing activity in my mail box. If you haven't tried Post Crossing (https://www.postcrossing.com/) yet, check out their web site and give it a try. It keeps your mail box happy.
I just love the cool international stamps,don't you? I am partial to Japanese Stamps...but I love them all!
This beautiful postcard didn't have much writing, but where it lacked in writing, it MORE than made up for it in gorgeous postage stamps! I love the quaint little phrases in English. I admire anyone trying to learn a new language--bravo!
You may receive more than a postcard from a postcrosser like I did here.
In my Post Crossing profile, I mention that I teach a geography class to young children, so I appreciated any cards that showed the landscape, or local landmarks. I do take the cards in and share them with my class. the children take turns locating the country and city on a map from the point of origin of the postcard.
Because of this , the postcrosser sent a beautiful postcard of local foods of Taipei, Taiwan, along with pictures, scenes of the locality
and then a coin. Such a lovely experience! I plan on sending something back to this kind postcrosser.
Happy Snail Mailing...

I just recently sent one to Finland. I have been off for a while but I hope to get back in the groove. Can you use stamps that equal up to the amount or just use one stamp? I have used just one but there are people who like to collect the stamps.
