Cool Things-Postcrossing

I just heard about this from a fellow homeschooling mama on the MotheringDotCommune forums.  It sounded so interesting that I signed up immediately!

Basically when you sign up they give you a random address to which you send a postcard.  Once your postcard is logged in by the recipient your address gets sent to someone else and you receive a postcard.  You can request a certain kind of card in your profile (I requested historic sites and recipes) and list the languages you speak.  The best thing is that it’s free (well besides postage and the cost of postcards). 

We have already received three addresses; one from Germany, one from Spain and one from Finland.  The kids are uber excited to start sending and receiving!
