    To me, postcrossing is a portal to the rest of the world :) I've always dreamt of travelling the world, but since that dream is on hold for now, i'm postcrossing instead ^.^ It's a great way to meet people from different cultures and backgrounds!

    Oh, I'm first :)
    Maybe one of the biggest discovery I made for myself because of postcrossing were stamps. After receiving some postcards with really beautiful and interesting stamps I began to collect them. And now I'm happy to do both these hobbies :D

    I started January last year because my dad was only a week passed away. And I was searching for some new hobby's to do, because I was jobless. So I came to postcrossing. And the time I was mourn and process my dad's death, It took many happy feelings to the sending and receiving of cards, it helped me through. So I love postcrossing now even more then I just started!

    Postcrossing for me is a return to childhood, when I could not travel. I live in a very large country, but before that there were 15 states. I corresponded with the girls and boys of all these countries. We exchanged cards and photos of film actors. Especially a lot of cards come with greetings for the new year.Now it is not only an opportunity to learn about other countries, but also to personally meet with new friends. Postcrossing is happiness.

    In postcrossing I love this time when you see in postbox some cards and you wonder what kind of card it is, from who... and then you take it from the box and your day become betten and more sunny :)
    I love received cards from beautiful places- often places which are hardly known... and places where I haven't ever been :)

    I think the fact that part of me (my writing) has been all over the world is the most thing i like about PC beside the fact that i can receive and connect from people everywhere. as i love to travel i also can know about other countries and even have a view (if scenery postcards are sent)of the place.

    thanks
