If you want to do something a bit different and you have a smart phone with camera or Ipad, then you can download a photo/postcard app and make your own postcards from photos you have taken. Pick a photo, do what you want with it, write your own message and then click send. The postcard is then mailed to the US address. There is a fee for the postcard that includes processing the photo, making the postcard and sending it. I can’t quite remember how much though - maybe about $1-2??

I did this during my recent European vacation and the postcards turned out great. They were sent out very quickly too and my family had the cards before I even returned home. It was a nice way to personalize my experience there. Of course if you are looking for a foreign stamp, then you would have to do it the old fashioned way and buy a postcard!
