I have traveled extensively but I did not purchase postcards to keep -- only to send to family and friends. I cannot fulfill that part of the swap requirements although I have lots of photos and for some swaps I make PC out of copies of my photos. I don't want to join and ruin my swap record by getting a 3 from some type-A swapper for not strictly following the swap instructions. I'm sorry that's a rule because I LOVE to write to people about interesting places I've seen.

June, you raise a valid point and I realize others may have the same issue (not having storebought postcards from the place they traveled to). So I've edited the swap description slightly to include homemade picture postcards for that portion of the swap. I hope you'll reconsider joining! And thanks for your input:)
