This classic riddle asks:
“What can travel around the world while staying in one corner?”
At first, it sounds impossible. How could something travel thousands of miles without ever leaving its corner?
The trick is to think about an object that travels wherever a letter or package goes. It stays attached in the same small corner while being carried from city to city and even from one country to another.
That clever bit of wordplay makes this riddle a favorite.
Answer: A postage stamp.
