When we talk about long trips, the first concern is in how to keep in touch with family and close friends. We miss them a lot but nowadays there are so many tools available that help us shorten the distance. Skype, Facebook, WhatsApp are just a few classic examples. We’re going now to talk about another brilliant way to stay in touch with our loved ones: postcards.

 

 

Postcards

 

Another option which we consider very interesting is postcards. Imagine how cool it would be if you receive a postcard from every city your best friend visited! Or imagine your parents receiving a postcard from all the cities you’ve been to? Is it not great? 😀

 

Thinking about this different hobby, a website has been created that allows you to exchange postcards with people anywhere in the world. Here we present the Postcrossing.

Besides sending postcards to my friends and family, I also collect them. Everywhere I go I buy at least 3 postcards. Do you collect something from your trips? Did you like the idea of sending postcards to other? We’d love to know! ♥
