Today’s #PostCrossing mailbox haul included postcards all the way from Mumbai, Hong Kong, Seoul, and Sendai! 💌

I just love the little window these give into a another person’s world. They’re pretty much always onetime one-way messages, and there is something a little magical about sending your card out to a randomly selected stranger in the hopes that it brightens their day for a moment.

my postcard from Saint Helena took 34 days to reach my home in the UK. So let's hope the 12 cards I sent via Postcrossing all arrive with their targets soon!

Also notice that sending a card abroad from Saint Helena costs only 50p - sending a card abroad from the UK now costs £3.20

In #postcrossing I always have that when I send a postcard with #Chuvash design and (or) sign in Chuvash language (with translation, of course), they always reply "thank you because of your postcard and went to read about your people, it's interesting and I learned new things".
It’s so nice.

Someone has decorated my local post box with #GooglyEyes. Are we still allowed to call them googly eyes or will the search police insist that we call them #DuckDuckGo-y eyes? #postcrossing

A bright red pillar box on a lovely spring day. It has been decorated with googly eyes so that those, the next pickup date label, and the letter slot make a daft smiley face. Googly eyes make EVERYTHING better. Everything. Even googly eyes should have googly eyes stuck on them, and so on ad infinitum.
