Travel by Letter: Stories from Elsewhere, Delivered Where You Are

  • Detailed travel stories with vibrant illustrations

  • Each month, explore a new destination

  • Real mail. Real letters. Real adventure.

The Mail Mix Experience

We're bringing back the magic of personal correspondence in a world of digital notifications. Each delivery isn't just a letter—it's a moment from elsewhere, captured in words and illustrations.

For young explorers, it's like having a globe-trotting pen pal. For those who've traveled far and wide, it's a chance to revisit familiar places through fresh eyes. 

Display them, gift them, treasure them – each letter becomes part of your own collection of worldly moments.
