my postcard collection

2008-01-24T11:29:00.000+01:00

hi there!

I am a collector of postcards that are send to me by snailmail, I just love to get picturepostcards in my mailbox!
In January 2008 I found a website that is called postcrossing.com and I made myself a member there. The whole point of that website is that you send a postcard to a complete stranger. The reciever checks in his/her ricieved on the website and than you will be up to recieve a postcard from another complete stranger....

I have just started this so I have to see how this is working, but I have good hopes!
Till now I have only send 2 cards; one to Germany and another to Finland.

Now I have to wait and see if I get 2 cards back and when that event will happen...
In the mean time I want to share with you some postcards I recieved from internet friends all over the world allready and not just internetfriends! I always ask friends and family to send me a card when going somewhere, so now I have cards from Rome, Greece, America and even my own little country The Netherlands. (*ü*)

In the upcomming days am going to scan the postcards I already have and put them up in this blog, than wait for the postcards from the postcrossing.com site....

I can't wait to show you what I already got! (*ü*)
