Hello!
I'm an American living in Germany. Three years down, three to go. Love it.
I have formed a group of, ahem, older women (40s, 50s) who are interested in writing pen pals at senior citizen centers back in the States. We are older in the sense that many women here are young military wives, and we are not that (anymore)!
We are looking to alleviate some of the isolation by this awful pandemic. We thought it would be fun to send mail back to the States. We also wouldn't mind sending postcards of some awesome European places (we are getting to travel a little bit these days). And also hearing back from people who would like to share their experiences.
My group has 8 people right now, so we're looking for at least that many people. If you are interested, would you please send me an email at [email address removed from public view for online safety reasons. please use the private messaging system on the community]
Please DO not put your last name or your home address. That would violate this site's rules, and I don't want anyone to feel unsafe or put personal information on a public website or in an email.
Please DO put your first name and the address of your senior citizen center or a safe address where the mail can be sent.
My group's first meeting is on Saturday, 22 Aug, so please make haste.
Looking forward to some new overseas connections!
Laurie
