National Pen Pal Day!
It’s National Pen Pal Day!
A pen pal is someone you correspond with by regularly writing letters, sharing aspects of your life, personal events, and more. The relationship is based on exchanging letters, and many times the pen pals have never met, or it can be someone who you once knew.
Nowadays with less people using snail mail, receiving and exchanging letters in the mail with a pen pal is exciting! Having a pen pal is a lovely pastime, and sometimes they even meet up in person. Pen pals may seek out others with a shared commonality, like hobbies,
A friend’s mother has had a penpal in Germany since childhood, and they have been in touch for decades! They have even come to visit each other in their countries!
Pen pals come in all ages, nationalities, cultures, languages and interests. There are many benefits of having a pen pal! Whether your pen pal is in a different country or in a different city, having a pen pal offers people a broader view of the world. Writing letters helps improve our writing skills, and gives us a break from technology! If your pen pal speaks another language, you can practice learning languages with each other! A great way to connect to a pen pal is through shared hobbies!
