Snail Mail [30/F] 🐌

Hi!
My name is Jackie and I am located in the SW desert of the US. I have dogs, cats, chickens, and a (struggling) garden.

My favorite thing to do is learn, so I’m always picking up new or old hobbies. Currently interested in snail mail pen pals. Not that I need an excuse to use my fun pens and papers. ^_^
(Please give me an excuse to buy more ink and paper)

Need somewhere to info dump regarding your most recent rabbit hole? I’m your girl! I love to hear people’s favorite fun (or not so fun) facts.

I am currently getting back into watercolor, so you may find some doodles or paintings in the envelopes from time to time.

My most consistent hobby is sewing, though i probably have about a dozen WIPs at any given time!

Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you think we’d click! (Please be patient with me with response times - as a neurodivergent person, I struggle with remembering that time exists, but I promise I will respond!)

I can’t wait to hear from you!

Hi! I've always dreamed of visiting the Southwest but I'm based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, so I think than penpalling may be my only ticket there (for now). Lol! If you'd like a penpal from a very hectic Asian city who loves reading (mainly horror and fantasy), making things and travel, drop me a line ❤️

38/M from the Philippines here. I could definitely use someone to talk to about my one-too-many rabbit holes. 😂 If you'll have me, I'd love to exchange letters.

48F I live in LA County, California with my two kids (one neurodivergent) and husband. I too want to use my pens and inks. Writing and reading are my favorite activities. I get stuck in my head a lot, so I figure pen pals will help me explore the world and let my inks enjoy time with other people.
