Postcrossing

It's so frustrating to be a debutant postcrosser and have 5 cards (the maximum allowed for now) travelling and not being able to send out more. One is going to Italy (which shouldn't take long), one to Brazil, one to Russia and two to China. So far I have received cards from Japan, Belgium, Germany, and the Netherlands. (4 arrived, 4 sent... nicely done! lol)
I used to have a lot of pen pals from all over the world but a lot of them vanished after a letter or two, which is frustrating as well. So now I'm exchanging postcards (without any further commitments) and getting to see places from all over the world. Sounds much better, don't you think?
