Buy postcards. Any good correspondence begins with something to write about. You can buy “wish you were here” tourist postcards at souvenir shops in any resort in the world.

• Whether you’re on Mount Everest in Nepal or the Thunder Mountain roller coaster at Walt Disney World, you can find postcards that are professional, even looking so good that your friends will be amazed. fever of jealousy.
• Why do we have to wait? There will be times when you come across postcards that as soon as you see them, you immediately know it will make someone smile. At this time, buy now or you will miss it!
• You can bring joy to someone by sending anonymous postcards. Sending postcards can become a fun game, like the fable in a French film about a character named Amélie who hides his face to help others, or about a man who is invaded by a squirrel. occupy the house. One summer, a man’s house was invaded by a squirrel. After two weeks of trying, he finally caught it. Then he drove more than 30 kilometers out of town to release the squirrel. A few days later, he received a postcard from a stranger signed by the name “Mr. Fuzzy.” After that, he kept receiving different postcards from Mr. Fuzzy, it’s as if that mysterious person has traveled around the world. A few more friends also joined the game and the man had a collection of postcards from major cities around the world. You can also create a “Mr. Fuzzy” by choosing a fake name to sign below, then sending your friends or children postcards from around the world.

Get acquainted with postcards. With a postcard in hand, we’ll take a look at the details. Overall, the design of the postcard is easy to understand.

• Flip the other side of the postcard. The top right corner is the place to put the stamp (you’ll see a rectangular frame about the size of a stamp).
• Postcards are often divided into sections. To the right of the postcard are lines for you to write the recipient’s address. To the left of the postcard is a space that allows you to fill in a message, hand-drawn or quizzes to take the recipient into a cross-country treasure hunt.

Add the date to the top right of the note. Although not required, this will help the recipient know when you sent the postcard (and also to see how long it takes for a postcard from Canberra, Australia to reach Hanoi, Vietnam). You may be surprised by how fast/slow the service is.

Decide who gets your postcard. Start by mentioning the person (or people) you are addressing. For example, “Dear John,” (“Dear John”), or whatever your creativity allows. For example, “To my superman” (“To my superman”) or “My dearest, Most darling, beloved Aunt Nancy” (“To my dearest Aunt Nancy in the world”).

Write a message. Actually, writing postcards is not as difficult as you think. Just write what you like, content as long/short as you want. You can also write a short paragraph, the rest draw a picture describing your favorite moment of the trip so far. Some people like to write a lot, fill in all the space for the message, then write along the bottom edge, around the right edge, continue upside down to the top edge and then down along the left edge of the postcard. Feel free to write, as long as there’s space for the recipient’s address. Here are some suggestions for what you can write:

• Tell about the most enjoyable experience of the trip so far. Something like: Although this trip to Panama has been amazing, yesterday something happened that was truly crazy. I discovered I have a sloth sense. The girls and I trekked through the jungle to find this beautiful hidden beach, and on the way I spotted four different sloths. Each time one was near, I would stop walking and announce that there was a sloth around. I would look up, and sure enough, a sloth! Right above me! (Translation: “Although this trip to Panama was extremely exciting, it wasn’t until yesterday that everything that happened was truly wonderful. I discovered that I could feel sloths. Me and the girls went through the forest to the beautiful beach on the other side and on the way we met four different sloths.Each time there was one near me, I stopped and informed Everyone seems to be lazy around here. After looking around, we immediately spotted a sloth above my head!)
• Another idea is to tell about the weird food you’ve tried: You won’t believe this but two hours ago I tried kangaroo tail, crocodile meat, and a green ant, all in the same day! The kangaroo tail was a bit greasy but the Crocodile tasted like–you guessed it!–chicken. But most surprising of all, the green ant tasted like a sour grape! The land down under sure is an interesting place! (Translation: “You won’t believe it, two days ago I ate kangaroo tail, crocodile meat and green ant, all in one day. The kangaroo tail is a bit fatty, and the crocodile meat tastes like chicken meat.” ! But that’s not the most interesting thing, do you know what green ants taste like? I thought I was eating sour grapes. This is such a wonderful place!”)
• You can choose to end the message like “hope all is well” (“hope it all goes well”) or “You would love it here!” (“You’ll love this place!”) so that your partner doesn’t go crazy with jealousy.

Sign. For postcards, you don’t have to be too formal, just say goodbye like you usually talk to each other. When was the last time you said “sincerely yours” directly to someone? Instead, you can use some old-fashioned goodbyes like: “Wish you were here!” (“If only you were here!”), “See you soon!” (“Hope to see you soon!”), “LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!!” (“Love you so much!”) Or, you can end the letter in a very personal way. For example: “Love, your wandering granddaughter” (“I love you, from my wandering granddaughter”), “Signed, a broad abroad” (“Signed, from afar”) or something similar.
