Today I received a postcard from a good friend of mine who is spending a month of her summer studying abroad. She sent my postcard from Cape Town, South Africa. Within the past year or so, I've developed a great love for postcards. When I went traveling a few years ago, I thought postcards were lame. I don't recall sending them to anyone, but my friends with me were always sending them out. Now, I love getting them!
I think postcards are such an interesting way to share an experience with people. Last year, I got a postcards from Athens, Uganda, and Kenya. (not to mention the postcards Grace and I got on our road trip from every state we went to between WA and MI) I like reading the little blurbs written on them; I feel like I'm there living it as well. I have given my address to many friends who have plans of studying, missioning, or just traveling abroad. I can't wait to see where my postcards will come from!
