Postcrossing Round Up #8

I have been on a roller coaster the two to three weeks on all fronts, and have been shuttling between Chennai and Pune like anything.  So this Friday, when I finally came back home, a bonanza of postcards were waiting for me.

Here is the latest haul -

Multiple views from Copenhagen, Denmark

That's it for now!

Cheers!

Postcrossing Round Up #2

Hello Everyone!

Postcrossing-wise, this week was a very interesting week! I received three postcards - 2 from Germany and 1 from USA. And the two postcards from Germany coincidentally had 2 successive Postcard IDs - DE-4311253 and DE-4311252

For postcrossers, getting successive numbers or special sequence numbers are considered a special bonus, but most people get these numbers while sending postcards, but for a change I got sequential numbers in postcards I received! :)

This week's postcrossing round up!

What have you been up to? :)

Postcrossing Round Up #1

There is this website called www.postcrossing.com - It is a postcard exchange project that invites everyone to send and receive postcards from random places in the world. In effect, it lets you travel the world from the cozy confines of your home! How cool is that!

I had joined this in 2012, with the goal of making new friends. I used to be active, but had fallen out of it due to varying work and home priorities.  But now I am back on the postcrossing circuit, and will post a round up of my travels around the world :D

As I said, I have recently gotten back into the circuit, so this Round Up features one post card.
This was sent by a fellow Postcrosser, who was celebrating his 500th Postcard. And the card was stamped with a special cancellation stamp. Here are the pictures
