Going postal

I jinxed myself and now I’m wireless-frei in Vienna. These seem like auspicious conditions for the launch of my extremely exciting collection of photographs of post-boxes. I’ve been taking photographs of post-boxes since I left Australia and I think I am going to starting posting boxes from a new country each week until the end of the year. That there aren’t actually that many weeks until the end of the year is a bit of a shock to my system. Anyway, you can collect a new post-box every week! Thrills and spills!

Here’s a post-box from Vientiane, in Laos.

There are so many forces drawing me to photograph post-boxes. If I were to list them all now, this post would be longer than my arm. One solid pro-post-box statement per post.

1. Postcards/Cartes postales/Postkarten.
I’ve been greatly enjoying sending postcards. If you think you should have received a postcard from me and haven’t, it’s probably because I don’t have your address. Send it to me and see what happens.

I myself will be in a position to receive postcards in Lamu. If you want to send me a postcard and think that it will arrive before the end of October, address it to:
Trixie Tralala,
Poste Restante,
Lamu,
KENYA.
