Currently I live in a community on the west coast of the US. I have traveled quite a bit in the US. I have lived in Norway and visited Denmark, Sweden, Canada, and Mexico.

I would really like to find a pen pal in any country outside the US. I love learning about new cultures and sharing information about my own. Visiting other cultures helps me see my own in a different way.

I am not interested in "hooking up" virtually or in reality. I am only interested in a platonic friendship.

I would like to learn about other countries from the people who live there. I'm interested in daily life experiences and how they differ from my own.

If you plan to ask me to transfer money or any other financial request do NOT bother messaging me. Under no circumstances would I do any of that. Go bother someone else.

My hobbies are photography, watercolor painting, gardening, travel, walking my dogs, and reading.
