Letterboxing started in England, but can now be found all around the world. It is a neat way to get out and visit some places you might not normally go, or make places you do go more exciting. Basically, you are searching for a waterproof box that has been hidden (placed) by someone and then has posted clues to the letterbox. When you follow the clues and find the box, you stamp your journal, stamp the journal in the letterbox and re-hide the box.
All you need to letterbox is a personal stamp, a stamp pad, a pen or pencil, a compass and the clues to the location of the letterbox. (See the link below to clues in North America).
