I am sorry I couldn't join this swap, but I live in an area where almost all the postcards are "touristy". I had even bought PC's that I thought would qualify, but I had missed the only 1 touristy card per partner requirement, so I had to drop. Perhaps in the future you could make the requirements a little less restrictive. Thanks -- it really sounded like a fun swap!

Hi @Gabrielle I'm so sorry you dropped. PLEASE feel free to borrow this swap and host it if you'd like--I never mind sharing ideas. If you are interested in getting non-touristy cards, amazon.com has a wonderful selection, as does zazzle. Oftentimes the cards on amazon are listed as "used" but the books of postcards are, typically, in excellent condition. Some for a penny! (plus shipping of course) Hope this helps.
