Jessica, my new pen friend from Florida told me about these two terrific postcard sites….
Postcrossing
“The goal of this project is to allow people to receive postcards from all over the world, for free. Well, almost free! The main idea is that: if you send a postcard, you will receive at least one back from a random Postcrosser from somewhere in the world. ” With 203 countries involved, you have a good chance of seeing the world through your mailbox!
