Hello! I am 41 years old, born and raised in Europe, lived long time in the US and am now back in Europe. I'm married and a mom to a sweet little boy. I am independent, social, well-read and can talk about all kinds of things. I'm curious about the world, love to read and learn things every day and challenge myself.

I'm primarily looking for snail mail pen pals for the time being. My time is a bit limited, so I am looking for a few penpals who wouldn't mind a little shorter (not superficial!) but more frequent letters,since having a few hours of free time is a mirage these days 😊

Here are some random thoughts....I like heat better than cold (although that has changed a bit lately with the global warming). Coffee, chocolate and cheese are the best things mankind ever came up with.:-)) A quiet evening with a glass of wine and a movie is as good as a wild night out. Book reading is a lost art - we've become too visual. Often penpals are better friends than the real ones, it just sucks that they are so far away!

I am fond of the healthy way of living and try to improve little parts of my life every day.

You don't have to have the exact interests like me. Just be chatty, willing to share, positive and non-judgemental. I would love to find friends with whom I can share everything and build a lasting friendship. So drop me a line, let me know about yourself and let's see if we click as friends!

The country where you live does not matter much, it's the compatibility. Since I lived long in the US, I'd prefer folks outside of it, to learn more about the lifestyle there.

You don't have to speak English perfectly but I've found it hard to communicate properly with English beginners, especially through letters.

reading, writing, gardening, cooking, crafty things, movies, tennis, hanging out with friends, beach, healthy lifestyle, science, cats, photography, languages, other cultures, soccer, etc.

classic rock, international music, Latino music, jazz

TV shouldn't be what defines us:-)

These always change!
