End of a project


Hi guys! It's been a while since I last updated you. I have been very busy, but now Spring has begun I can't wait to start writing letters again. I still have to reply to some of you, so if you haven't got something back - don't worry!
My temporary hiatus got me thinking.. it has been fun to write all these letters with people from all over the world but I think I want to start a new project. I'm not sure what kind of project, but I decided to remove my mail form which means I won't accept new pen pals or pen pal calls.
I will keep on writing, but just with the people I know. I'm always interested in swapping, but I prefer to swap with people behind blogs I already 'know'. I hope you understand this, and who knows - maybe I'll replace my contact form in a couple of months!


My last outgoing mail, to Kelly and Rin. Looking at these parcels makes me so happy!

Letter hiatus


Dear snail mail lovers, as you might have noticed there weren't many updates on here lately. I have been so busy but new requests keep coming every day. I don't want to dash off my letters but honestly I can't keep up with this tempo!
So I made the difficult decision to close my project for new entries. This won't be forever, I have had a little hiatus before. I just want to have fun at writing, at the moment it feels more like a job than a hobby. For example: I still have to reply to letters I received in late September!
So, if you're reading this and you're still waiting for me to respond: I will, but it takes a little bit more time than I thought. If you want to write with me: please come back in a month or so, I won't be answering mails according this project the next few weeks. Please check out the pen pal calls or send in your own pen pal call (just write down your basic info, take a picture of it and send it to me).


I will keep updating this blog the following weeks with letters I received and sent lately, I just won't add new pen pals until I have the time to write everybody back. So don't worry, there will be updates on here!

#88 Marinthe

From: Marinthe, The Netherlands - December 2012


I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and New Years Eve! Wish you all the best for 2013. I have been quite busy too, so I have a lot of mail to catch up on. At the moment I will take a little pause and won't accept new pen pals, I'm sorry! Of course I will open entries again, when I'm not so super busy anymore.

This lovely wrapped package came from Marinthe, and included a scented sachet which smell like fresly washed clothes. So now my dorm smells delicious! She also included a pen pal call, which I will publish on the blog so you can all write with Marinthe too!

#87 Vanessa (package swap)

From: Vanessa, Belgium - December 2012


I received another letter with some really cool letter goodies which spell my name. Maybe I can make a garland of it. I'm not some kind of narcistic person, but I just really like them haha.
Vanessa, who sent me this beautiful package, included lots of other lovely things. I always love these collections of random but special things. Thanks Vanessa!
