There is something so unrealistic yet utterly romantic about sending countless letters to some person you’ve never met, and slowly falling in love in the process...

We wisselen vaak verhalen uit over onze angsten en zorgen over het leven. Ik heb nooit geaarzeld om hem iets te vertellen.

I do feel like an old friend who longing each other and finally reunited after a long time separated.

Why do people nowadays keep sending letters?

This story started with me who didn't know what to do because I couldn't sleep that night...

I loved 'talking' to Nick because I can write whatever I want without feeling pressured.

We grew up in a digital world so to speak. But I always feel like I was born in the wrong era!

And since that, we never contacted each other because he doesn't want to give me a false hope.

So, after a week of sending letters in Slowly, he asked me to meet up...

My letters are about 2000-6000 words, so you could say that I take letters seriously and that I’m quite intense...

She is 7 years-old younger than me, we started to connect through Slowly sharing our habits & thoughts ‘in almost 100%’ in common.

It may be hard to find someone who wants to share and talk about stuff, but once you find them you know that they could be your lifetime friend...
