Postcrossing

39 days ago, having seen a blog post about it, I decided to join Postcrossing. Since then I've received 3 postcards from around the world (Italy, Canada and the Netherlands), learnt some new country locations, swapped postcards with two other people, and added plenty of stamps to my stamp collection. All in return for getting rid of a few postcards of my own that have been accumulating in my study.
What a great bargain and experience!
