Postcrossing

For anyone that isn't familiar with Postcrossing, you should really check it out. Basically, its a free service to receive postcards from all around the world. The only cost is when you send a postcard (postage isn't very much - even if its going to China). I sent 5 postcards for about $7.00 (one to China, Russia, Ireland, Germany, & one within the US).

I received my first postcard today. It's from Russia by a lady named Irina. It is a portrait of Natalie Coucharoug - whom is the wife of a famous Russian Poet, A.S Pushrin.

I can't wait to see where else I get them from - I think I will start a scrapbook to put them in :)
