A beautiful experience — I’ve met kind and helpful people, and it’s very enjoyable. Now I have friends from five continents and I’m very happy to be here. Una bella esperienza, ho trovato persone cortesi e disponibili, è molto piacevole. Ora ho amici dai 5 continenti e sono molto soddisfatta di essere qui

I love writing but with all the technology and fast movement I yearned for something slower, more intimate and nostalgic. I guess it's the millenial in me but i HAVE enjoyed using this platform so much and being able to connect with people all over the world. My fav thing is getting to know someone and crafting a beautiful letter for them.
