I've been fortunate enough to have traveled around the world a few times before this particular trip to London, however, this is the first time I've started collecting postcards from each new place that travel to. There are many reasons why I love this new collection addiction, the first being that it is affordable! Most of the postcards I got below were no more than a pound, and some of them are very nicely printed. Another reason I am so fond of postcards are because they are easy to transport, you don't have to worry about them taking up a ton of room in your luggage as you travel around the world. I personally have chosen not to write on mine, I prefer to think of them as mini art prints (which essentially they are) that I can collect and keep over time. I have been very picky about the postcards that I have chosen so far. I more prefer the hand drawn/ painted and graphic ones than the typical photographed ones, which does make it a bit more difficult to find, however when you do it is very exciting! I hope you enjoy looking at my small collection so far, I am excited to continue my search for more beautiful postcards around Europe, and when I do I'll be sure to update you all!
