[Offer]Dunno if anyone is around still...?[USA to WW]

I don't know if anyone visits this sub, but I would like to offer happy mail to those who might be lurking, if you want mail that is.

I have a google form you can fill out with your address and then I will send you random happy mail!

My address is at the end of the form once you submit if you would like to send me anything. I would love to receive mail from you, but it is NOT REQUIRED in order to receive mail from me. =)

Hey I am from RAoC and I think we have written to each other before. I was wondering if you wanted to fill out my new google form to receive some happy mail?

https://forms.gle/K7SKrLnqx5bE8dk97

Thanks so much for your time!

[offer/exchange] Postcards from [Albania and other European places] to [Worldwide]

Hi! Please let me know if this isn't allowed, but I didn't see any restrictions in the sidebar. I'm a Peace Corps volunteer in Albania. I can send postcards from Albania (and have a limited number from a trip to Italy, and can buy some when I visit Budapest next week). All cards will be mailed from Albania.

In exchange, would love a small donation to my project to raise funds for a school library in my town, or if you could share it on your social media, that would also be amazing. Thanks! https://www.peacecorps.gov/donate/projects/has-library-project-pp-18-304-001/

Cripplingly lonely, but with fairly attractive handwriting!

Hey! I’m super lonely, don't have any friends, etc. But I’ve been practicing calligraphy recently and I’d love to try out being pen pals sometime. Here's some of my interests and hobbies, in case you see anything you like:

  • History - especially classical ancient history, like Rome and Greece.

  • Language - it's really fascinating learning about different writing systems, how languages evolved over time, etc.

  • Travel and learning about foreign lands.

  • Comedy - despite being kind of depressed at the moment, I think I have a great sense of humor, and I love making people laugh. I even used to work doing stand up comedy!

  • Nerdy junk like anime, video games, etc.

  • Writing - I've always loved telling stories. And recently I've even been messing around with poetry as well.

Okay, that's probably enough for now. If you're interested, it would really mean a lot to me if you were to write me sometime:

29/M/USA - I'm going to prison soon. I just wish I had someone to talk to.

I don't want to be overly depressing or negative here, but basically I'm facing several years in prison. I don't have any friends, and I honestly don't even want to talk about the legal problems or whine about things. I just want someone I can chat with through snail mail about silly random things. I think casual conversations the biggest thing that I miss from back when I used to have friends.

Here's some of my interests and hobbies, in case you see anything you like:

  • History - especially classical ancient history. I love learning all of the crazy true stories that happened in places like ancient Rome

  • Language - it's really fascinating learning about different writing systems, how languages evolved over time, etc.

  • Comedy - despite being kind of depressed at the moment, I think I have a great sense of humor, and I love making people laugh. When I was younger, I even used to work doing stand up comedy

  • Math - okay, math has a really bad reputation. I know I hated it in school. But once I got older, I was really drawn to math-related puzzles, and I started doing geometric art, etc. I honestly don't have that deep of an understanding of math, but I love experimenting and discovering more.

  • Writing - I've always loved telling stories. And recently I've even been messing around with poetry as well.

Okay, that's probably enough for now. If you're interested, PM me. It would really mean a lot.

Hi guys! Anyone want to help make some offers?

I will as soon as I can get downtown. I'll do about 5 and make a separate post for you to claim them. Anyone else want to help revive the community? The more offers made, the more people will follow with their own! Regardless, thank you for sticking around. I will do what I can :)

[Exchange] Postcards from NYC to anywhere in the world

It doesn't look like this sub has had a lot of activity, but I thought I would give this a shot again.

Hey all, postcards are cheap and easy to come by in NYC, and I'm willing to send one anywhere in the world. All I ask is that I get one in return. I enjoy snarky/amusing postcards, but I'll take whatever you have to send. :-)

Edit: 1 sent, 9 left

2nd Edit: This sub doesn't seem to be getting a lot of love right now. If you're looking for other people to exchange with, I also suggest checking out /r/PostCardExchange

[Request] NY My girlfriend (23F) could use some cheering up

First, I will say, yes I posted this on the /r/RandomMail reddit also. I want to make sure it gets traffic. Now,

My girlfriend (23F) and I (24M) have been together for almost three years now. I'll be honest, it hasn't been easy, but she's worth it.

Last April, she had to have surgery. There were some complications and she's still recovering. She's unable to work right now (though she is job hunting) and she could really use some new friends.

She's always talked about wanting penpals and people to exchange cards, postcards, letters or little items with.

I wanted to surprise her with an anniversary gift that is unique and that's where you come in! I want to give her a box filled with cards and letters from friends and family that show her how important she is to us and how grateful we are for the opportunity to get to know her.

Things that you might want to know about her:

  • She's 23

  • Her favorite color is purple

  • She LOVES foxes

  • She loves books (biographies, mysteries, classics)

  • She loves art

  • Her favorite tv shows include: Scrubs, Grey's anatomy, Call the Midwife, Downton Abbey, and Doctor Who.

I'm sure she would love postcards from all over the world. Something that is unique, maybe with architecture or something historic. She would definitely return a postcard :)

We'll be thrilled to hear from you!

[Exchange] Require Postcard Vent & Motivation Partner, Ongoing Exchange, [Canada to Canada/US]

Edit: I've found a couple partners, so will close this for now

There are many times I would like to write a vent about my day and then send it out to someone anonymous who won't judge or even reply to it. I just want to vent and know someone is listening. I am looking for an exchange partner (or maybe 2 or 3) for this reason. I'm willing to receive your vents as well and promise they will be read and not judged.

I also would like to send one postcard a month to each other to inspire/motivate/etc with a motivational quote or something else creative.

Please PM me if you are interested in trying this out. Because of postage cost, I would really like a partner in Canada or U.S.

Thanks.

[Chain] Postcard chain (US specific)

Hey all! Let's make a postcard chain! I'm basing this thread on an idea posted by negi980.

Here are the rules for this chain:

  1. To join the chain, post your order number (1st, 2nd, etc) and the name of the previous poster (this is who you're sending the postcard to).
  2. PM the previous poster to get their address (the first person in the chain will contact me). For the sake of keeping things moving, the previous poster should try to respond within a week.
  3. Go and send the postcard! As above, please try to send it out within a week.
  4. The next person in line will contact you!

A few notes:

  1. Make sure you sort comments by "new" to ensure you see the most recent post first. The main reason I'm asking for the chain order number is to make sure everyone is responding to the correct comment.
  2. Please include your username and a comment about this chain somewhere on the postcard.
  3. Please be police and let the other person know when you send/receive your postcards.
  4. To keep postage prices equal, I'm focusing this chain on US redditors. If you'd like me to start an international chain, feel free to PM me (or make your own).
  5. The chain will end after a month of inactivity.

Anyways, enough talking. Let's get this chain a' started!

Looking for postcards sent from Disneys around the world!

Hi everybody.

As the title says, I'm looking for postcards from Disney Parks around the world! I have been to 2 Disney Parks (Florida/Tokyo) and I've sent postcards to my family and friends from every park, but I have yet to receive one. They come all fancy with a Disney stamp and I would really like to accumulate some myself! I am also open to other theme parks (ie. Universal, etc) if you're around there!

I have quite a few vintage DC comic postcards I would be willing to exchange if anyone is up for it :)

I cleaned out the sidebar! We are starting fresh...please read.

Although the old system worked really well, I think it sometimes scared people away, haha. And we have died out, so I think we need to change it up a bit.

No more 3 Strikes, or separate request/offer posts. If you would like a postcard from Alaska, ask for it. If you want to trade, post your offer. Or if you prefer the traditional format (you have 5 cards to send out), go ahead and do it that way.

Please promote this sub the best you can. I will be looking in to more advertising. Thanks to ALL of our Mods and Subscribers!

There are a few areas that are under construction, please excuse them :)

As always, suggestions are welcome.
