As previously mentioned in another post, I joined Postcrossing last fall. Postcrossing is a community of people who have a passion for postcards, stamps, people and other countries. I have always been passionate about these things for as long as I can remember and it has been a great experience connecting with other people who have the same passion. Here are the postcards I received in 2012 from friends, strangers (via Reddit) and Postcrossing. I have a sinking feeling that I might have left out one or two postcards that I received from friends or family. If I find them I will add them somewhere. My next task is to find all the postcards I have accumulated through out the years and post that collection, but this will require a trip to my parents house sometime in the near future.
