If you aren't involved in the pen pal hobby, it is likely hidden to you. What a shame! I'm talking about real live correspondence via postal mail. Ladies writing to Ladies, in their own community, state, across the nation, or across the world!
Oodles of women love to share life with each other via letter writing. Just think, no matter what your background, no matter what age, you pick up a pen and just WRITE.
You can travel the world from your armchair, not with an impersonal travel guide, but with a friend that you know and love from their letters.
Pen Pals is my first Hobby, and Retirement is my Occupation turned Retirement Income here on the web. My website for pals is Friendship By Mail and here are a few links to learn more about this fantastic hobby!

By the way, I'm not talking about the thousands of dating websites out there either. In my humble opinion, they've misused the term Pen Pal or Pen Friend -- yes, they do write to "strangers" as pen friends do, but it's very different when looking for love. Some pals do meet each other via letters, and get married, and that's great too! That just happens...
But what I'm really talking about is the simple exchange of emails or postal letters for friendship!
