As promised, my newly arrived #postcard. It's #cheese. Cheese, Gromit! The sender decorated it with cool stamps and washi tape covering some of the interests on my profile, jigsaws and rollercoasters and crafts etc, and her message was lovely too. Is it weird to think you and your #Postcrossing match would be friends irl? Cos we have cheese and knitting in common and tbh what more does a beautiful friendship need? 😅 I appreciate all the cards I've had so far, but it does feel extra special when someone matches the card to you so personally. Pride of place on the pegboard, here we come!

Aw yeah! The @postcrossing@mastodon.social stuff is now available for pre-order on the USPS website! I did not have dropping an extra $300 on this hobby on my to-do list today, but here we are. I am beyond excited for this, and that finally something @Jillianmarisa@vmst.io and I helped to lobby for has actually come to fruition. https://store.usps.com/store/results?Ntt=postcrossing #Postcard #PostCrossing #DayOfIssue

I just registered for a bunch of #postcard and #postcrossing events at the Boston World Expo. Any chance @postcrossing@mastodon.social and related folks are planning to go? Looks pretty nerdy. Exciting stuff.

Super excited to see the USPS's @postcrossing@mastodon.social partnership featured in the latest edition of USA Philatelic. I didn't know they were going to to Maxis, too! Weeee! // Maxis are a very European thing, that AFAIK basically don't exist as a concept here in the US. Though we've come close with a few. #Stamps #Postcrossing #Postcards #USAphilatelic #maxicard #Boston #DayOfIssue
