> [@Elendil\_s\_Heir](#): > > I’m in! Sounds like fun. What U.S. postage is needed for international delivery, anyway? Added! International postage can vary - From US to Canada is $0.75, from US to Israel, England, Ireland is $0.98. You can calculate international postage by visiting [www.usps.com](http://www.usps.com) - make sure to select the country and that it’s a postcard. You can also buy pre-stamped postcards from them - but what’s the fun in that? ---

Do I need to send a postcard from my part of the world, or just send a postcard postmarked from my part of the world but have the card come from another part of the world? (I have a ton of leftover postcards from previous travels) ---

I’m in. I’ll be happy to post internationally. I am a travel nutcase, and it’s harder to get out of Alaska than I thought it would be 😃 Will send you my info from the home computer on Monday 1/11/2010. ---

It might be fun to get something postmarked from you but from a different part of the world . . . ---
