You have to be impressed with New Zealand / Aotearoa. Not only are they one of the most fabulous countries to visit, they do ripper postcards too.
Featured Postcards
I've also included some I've sent myself from significant or interesting locations or just bought for fun. All my postcards are uploaded to my Flickr.
You'll see I also enjoy fancy stamps too. Want to trade? Read on.

Postcards from Rural South Australia
Over the years I have driven and ridden many thousands of miles in all directions from the family home in Adelaide. Here you will find a selection of postcards sent home from family travels dating back more than 50 years.
South Australia, a state in Australia, boasts diverse landscapes, from the Outback to coastal wonders like Kangaroo Island. Adelaide, its capital, exudes a laid-back vibe and hosts cultural festivals. Renowned for wine regions like the Barossa Valley, it offers culinary delights alongside rugged outback adventures, making it a captivating destination.

Sri Lanka
A new country for me both for travels and postcards, so I sent one to mum. As usual :)
Postcards from country New South Wales
The exploration of rural New South Wales unveils vast expanses of farmland, rugged terrain, and quaint towns steeped in history. From the fertile plains of the Riverina to the rolling hills of the Hunter Valley, exploration reveals agricultural abundance, scenic beauty, and the resilient spirit of rural communities shaping the state's character.

Found Postcards. Fond Memories.
As the tribulations of the COVID crisis continue, those of us stuck at home might find themselves clearing out the dark, dusty recesses of the cupboard or writing desk.
All too often those mysterious nooks and crannies reveal long-lost treasures. Long dried-out ballpoint pens stolen during a forgotten hotel stay, boarding passes from defunct airlines or postcards from friends and family who haven't had a Christmas card since before the fall of the Berlin Wall.
For your amusement, I've found a few cards that remind me of times gone by. Perhaps even one from you.
