Description:

You're looking for new books to read and also like to share your reads with others? Then take a look at this swap!

The idea is to have a postcard traveling through other book lovers, getting it back with lots of new recommendations.

If this is your first time participating: Your first swap will be you setting up your postcard. You can do this in advance of being assigned a partner. Find a postcard you like with a standard format. This allows the postcard to easily fit in a normal envelope, as well as not requiring additional postage. On the back, address the postcard to yourself. At the top, post the swap (Traveling Book Card), and your Swap Bot name. Then, draw pairs of lines on the message side of the card. Aim for 4-7 pairs of lines. Once your postcard is set up, pop it in an envelope and send it to your assigned partner. If you want an example write me a message with your email address, then I'll send you a photo. Please notice: this is an international swap. So better don't put a stamp on it! When someone from another country will send it back home to you, they will have to put a different stamp over it.

When You Receive your Partner's Postcard: First rate of course. Then you will be filling out one of the sets of lines. The top line is a book you recommend and the author. The bottom line should be your Swap Bot name, and your location. You can choose how you want to put your location in. You can choose your town, state/province, and country, or some combination of them. At the very least, include your country so we can see where the postcards are traveling to. If you like to, check the cards owners profile to take a look at favorite books or genres.

If you've participated before: Take the postcard you received in the previous round, make sure you've put down a recommendation, and send it to your partner. Didn't receive a card yet? Start a new one! It's okay to have multiple cards going out, but only if you don't have a card to pass on.

Further Information: When you fill out the last lines of the card, send it to its owner. For the next round start a new card. If your partner is the owner of the traveling book card, don't send the card on but message me!

If you want to quit this ongoing swap series please dont throw the cards you have at home away. Message me - I will send you an address to pass the card(s) on without receiving a new card.

Happy Swapping

Wow, Traveling Book Card #90 really captures the charm of exploring new places! I loved how it reminded me of my last stay at Vacation Farm—cozy vibes, fresh air, and a perfect mix of adventure and relaxation. Definitely inspires more trips to Vacation Farm spots!

What a helpful and thoughtfully written post. I love how you encourage people to prepare their postcard before being assigned a partner, it really keeps things stress free. The explanation about envelopes and postage is very useful, especially for international swaps where rules can be confusing. Offering to send an example photo via email is a nice touch and shows how supportive this swap community is. This guide will definitely help newcomers feel confident and prepared. currency in marrakech

This post does an excellent job of covering small but important details that can easily be missed. Writing your own address, labeling the swap clearly, and not adding a stamp too early are all great tips. I also like how you explain the reason behind each step rather than just listing instructions. It makes the process easier to understand and remember. Anyone interested in postcard or book related swaps will find this guide extremely useful and reassuring. currency in marrakech
