To Belgium, 78 km (48 miles):
I think this is my shortest distance from Helsinki to Tallinn 82km.
What does this sentence mean?
I mean, that using the USPS took that mail 3 days, but if I delivered it myself it would have taken it less than 10 minutes.

My shortest travelled card (sent by me) is AU-799184 from Tuggeranong, Canberra to Katoomba in the Blue Mountains. A distance of 221 km (as the crow flies). It’d be 347 kilometres if I drove there. It took four days to arrive…making it my fastest travelled card too (by six days!).

This one is not the shortest distance in this thread, but it’s pretty short, since I live fairly close to the Canadian border. I could drive to the sender’s city in a day; note that it took the combined might of two postal systems 13 days to deliver the card.
149 km!
It seems this card was on foot, 1km per day:)
