To blogger...

I really want a penpal at the moment. I don't know how to get one of these things off the ground, but I really want to do it.

There is something very intriguing about sending a letter to someone you have never met and yet you feel as if you know them. In this day and age of Facebook,text and Instant messaging we can reach anyone in the world in the same day, but there is nothing better then recieving a letter (which doesn't look like a letter from the bank) through the door.

I recall having a very short-lived penpal moment when I was 8 years old and we being taught French at school. I cannot for the life of me remember what was written (and not just because it was French), but I do remember nice pictures.

The reason why I wish to have a penpal I feel is because I believe that there is someone out there who thinks like me, believes in the things that I do, wants the things I want. It's nothing to do with romance, I think you understand what I mean. Recalling back to my love of the sea, I have always wanted to see what would happen if I thew a message in a bottle, would it float so far away I wouldn't be able to see it? Or (and most likely) float right back to me.

So I am calling out to all you bloggers; if you've got the pens, I have the stamps.
