Description:

I love to travel, and I love to talk about places I've been as well as hear about places others have been. (I can talk for hours about Cambodia) For each monthly themed swap, you'll have 3 partners and send each of them a postcard with a brief note about a place you've been that follows the monthly theme.

October's Theme is: AUTUMN COLORS. Write about a place that you have visited or like to visit during the fall. It may be a seasonal farm or a street lined with gorgeous trees or any other special fall place. Where is it? What do/did you do there? Will you go back again? (Write as much as you can fit on the back of the postcard.)

Write the Swap Name (Places I've Been - Octt09), Swap Theme (Autumn Colors) and Your Name VERY CLEARLY on the postcard.

The postcards can be handmade or store-bought. It's usually best to check your partners' preferences 1st!

If you have a postcard of the "place you've been", that's great, but it does NOT have to be. ONLY the message must be written about the place.

This swap is international, and is open to all, You will only be banned if you have really bad recent ratings, if you have any no-sends in this series of swaps, or if you have failed to meet the swap requirements in this series of swaps.

You have till the last day of each month to send out your swap, but send it out as soon as you can.

Happy travels!

As always, if you have any other ideas for monthly travel themes, please share them. I will gladly use your ideas on upcoming swaps!


DISCLAIMER: This swap is intended to be a writing experience. If you fail to adequately write about this month's theme, your partner may rate you a 3 for not meeting the swap requirements. Please read the theme questions carefully!

Fun idea! Can the postcard be in an envelope (in case we want to include goodies or photos of the place) or should it be "naked" and stamped? Thanks!

Envelope or naked, it's up to your partners. Some people prefer their postcards naked and stamped, while others don't. Most don't mind "extras" in envelopes : )
