As your membership grows older and you send and receive several cards, the stats start to kick in. Postcrossing sends you monthly stats to show you how many you’ve received and sent and even your standing in your own country, i.e. your position number for the most sent and received. Here’s an example of my…
Czechoslovakia
First card from Czechoslovakia. I am learning to spell these countries and learning something about each one from the messages handwritten on the back by the senders. Also learning some geography – a subject I hated while in school. Never too late to learn I guess 🙂 The great thing is that each sender loves…
Russia 3
My third card from Russia. By now I was learning from the stats at the Postcrossing site that there tens of thousands of members in several European countries and in China. In comparison there are only 5,600+ members in Australia. They work the system so that a different country is drawn each time someone requests…
Germany
My second card from Germany. Not really what I’d expect to get from Germany 🙂 But then, I’d begun buying cards wherever I visited too, even overseas.
Belarus
I’d only heard of Belarus in Eurovision and now I had my first card from this country.
Hungary
Starting to get quite a few countries now. First card from Hungary. I’d received several cards within a few days at this point. This was also one of the first postcards that wasn’t standard sized. I’d bought an album to hold 600 6×4 cards and suddenly I start getting cards that are oversized. Not sure…
Taiwan
First card from Taiwan
Ukraine

Meet Steve and the crew from our workshop
Delighted to see that Steve has shared some of our photos and about the workshop on his website. We really did have a lovely 2 days – it went far too fast but I did learn a great deal once again. This is the second workshop I’ve done with Steve Parish and very different to…
The Barn Owl
This past weekend I had the wonderful opportunity of not only attending, but also supporting, Steve Parish, Australia’s most well-known nature photographer, in a 2 day nature photography workshop being held almost in my own backyard. Well, down the road and along a few others anyway – not far away in Belgrave Heights. Two whole…
Russia
First and second cards from Russia arrived on the same day. First time I’d received multiple cards in the post.
