Some of my fondest childhood memories are connected to penpalling and I had international penpals already in the early 90's. I would love to receive handwritten letters again! I'm blessed to have parents who always encouraged me (long before internet) to be curious and open-minded about other countries, cultures and ways of living. The lockdown made me realize how much I detest online communication and social media, so I would love to get back to letters (NO e-mail penpals, thanks). Freedom of speech online is already getting limited and will only get worse under AI surveillance.
