Who is it for?
You're starting a new chapter – first job, moving, expatriation, graduation, new relationship. It is precisely in these transitional moments that a letter to your future self makes the most sense. Because in a year, you'll want to remember where you started.
You are a couple and want to mark an important date, create a surprise, offer an original gift, or simply establish a ritual.
You can also offer it to someone for a key moment in their life, to a loved one going through a significant event (birthday, move, graduation). To someone who needs to know that they will be there, on the other side.
Why physical, and not digital?
Emails are forgotten. Notes in apps disappear. A letter to yourself in the future takes on its full meaning when it arrives in an envelope, when you hold it in your hands, when you recognize your own handwriting.
That's why this postcard isn't a digital time capsule. It's an object. A suspended moment that travels through time to find you.
Is anyone reading the message?
The message is not read by anyone. Your text goes directly from your shopping cart to the printer then to the mailbox.
Is delivery guaranteed even in the distant future?
Yes, we are contractually obliged to honor deliveries. Otherwise, it's a problem.
