Hi! Should I write "airmail" on the envelope from Europe to USA or just on the SASE from USA to Europe? Thanks.

Hi Sebbe! :D
I only write "Airmail" on the envelope that I send out. Not on the SASE..

Write 'Airmail' on both. Otherwise it may go by surface mail which can take several months whereas airmail can take a week :wink:

How much? Should I use two Yosemite National Parks instead of one then?

the us post goes by weight,

from the u.s to Sweeden
1 oz. = .84
2 oz. = 1.70
3 oz. = 2.55

you should get it weighed at your post office, but my guess would be the 1.70 one

heres the link if youd like to see the whole list
