Send a postcard from Annecy (with your photo) — UnCoucou

Lake water so turquoise it hardly seems real, the Palais de l'Isle sitting like a ship's bow in the middle of the Thiou, geraniums spilling over the old town's bridges, still-white peaks mirrored in the water… "the Venice of the Alps" wears its nickname well.

A picnic on the Pâquier, a pedalo ride, that bracing swim that takes your breath away, the photo snapped from the Pont des Amours: your Savoyard shot deserves better than a fleeting story — a real postcard, in a real letterbox.

Frequently asked questions

The lake comes out a bit grey when the sky is overcast — can that be fixed?

The editor offers gentle light and contrast adjustments to bring the water back to life. And under a grey sky, a white border or a polaroid finish often makes for a lovely, soft-looking card.

How long before it arrives?

Your card is printed and handed to the postal service on our next posting day (at least once a week), then allow 2 to 5 working days for delivery in mainland France. The postie does the rest.
