Update: The school year ends late May. I am “closing” the request to make sure postcards do not get lost over the summer. Thank you to everyone that sent a card. I am still a new postcrosser, but this community has been so generous and kind!
Greetings Postcrossing Community!
As a former educator I love this forum and have enjoyed sending educational postcards in my short time as postcrosser.
I reached out to my son’s German teacher and she is interested in receiving postcards written in German.
The students are aged 14 to 18. There are four levels of German with a beginning (first time exposure) class to the Advanced Placement class. Many students at our school have not traveled beyond our community or out of the state. I think receiving postcards from Germany or from anywhere if you speak German would be exciting for them.
If you are interested please private message me or leave a reply for the school’s address.
I just live down the street in Austin (howdy neighbor), but I travel to Germany often and would love to send the class a card written in German from Germany I will be there in 2 weeks.
I am getting mail rather promptly from Bartko Reher also I haven’t noticed any issues from Lower Saxony, are the strikes only affecting some states? Hopefully no airline strikes again in the near future.
At the Moment there are no strikes and/or you were lucky because the Mail went from Berlin directly to the U.S. by Airmail.
It depends where the Union calls people to strike. And if the International Mail Centre (IPZ) at Frankfurt Airport is affected.
The Problem with the “new strikes” will be that they will be “without an end”. When more details are announced I will post it here.
I live in Baden Württemberg and I was affected by the past strikes.
