Components

There are 4 type of cards using in game:

- 52x Postcards

- 72x Travel Cards

- 25x Gift Cards

- 13x Ltinerary Cards

Each player takes a player board and places the 13 Camp tokens of their color on it. Each player randomly take 1 ltinerary card. The remaining litinerary cards are removed from the game.

Each player receives 5 Travel cards from the deck to form their starting hand, and 1 random postcard.

Gameplay

Each player takes their turn clockwise, until a player triggers the end of the game (sends 4 postcards). The game continues until the last player has played their turn.

During your turn

You must play 3 Travel cards from your hand. For each card played, you must choose between Taking an Action or Sticking a Stamp.

You can play 2 Travel cards of your choice to act as any other Travel card. This counts as 2 Travel cards towards your total of 3 Travel cards played.

Taking an Action

The action of a Travel card is defined by its symbol. There are 3 types:

- Movement Action (Bicycle symbol): Move your Bicycle pawn to a region adjacent to the one you are in.

- Postcard Action (Postcard symbol): Take an available postcard. You may discard the 3 next to the deck and draw 3 new ones to replace them before you choose.

- Camp Action (Camp symbol): Take the leftmost available Camp token from your player board and place it on an available campsite in the region you are in. If its type matches an available Souvenir space on one of your postcards, you may take a Souvenir token from the supply and place it on that Sourvenir space. This immediately grants you an effect.

Certain Camp tokens on your player board will also grant you an immediate effect when you place them.

If a player manages to place their Camp tokens on ALL the campsites in a region, they immediately scores 1 point per camp token they have placed there.

Sticking a Stamp

Any Travel card can be used to place a stamp. When sticking a stamp, the symbol on the card is ignored.

Place a Stamp token on an available Stamp space, on any of your postcards, that matches the color of the Travel card you played.

Sending Postcards

In addition to playing your 3 Travel cards, you can send a postcard at any time during your turn if:

• all the Stamp spaces on that postcard are filled, And

• you are in the region indicated on that postcard.

When sending a postcard, return all tokens on it to the supply, then immediately score the points indicated in its bottom-right corner and choose 1 Gift card. Finally, flip the card to reveal its illustration. It's sent!

Gift Cards

When you send a postcard, choose a face‑up Gift card and place it in front of you. Then fill the empty space with a new card from the deck.

End of Turn

At the end of your turn, draw new Travel cards until you have 5 total in hand. You can take face-up cards, draw from the top of the deck, or both. After completing your hand, fill any empty spaces on the board with new cards from the deck.

Then the next player in clockwise order takes their turn.
