Post crossing

I recently joined a group that exchanges post cards with other members in different parts of the world, its something different for anyone that looks forward to getting snail mail, other than circulars/flyers.  Since email and direct pay is so popular I think I forgot how slow regular mail can be.  The first post card I sent took 14 days to get from the U.S. to Poland, well guess what? I got my first one today from a someone that lives in Canada.  I was excited to finally get one, and on my birthday too!
