Isn’t it amusing how close of a relationship you can develop just over words?

Как журналист, я люблю узнавать больше о людях и о том, как они воспринимают жизнь. Однако Slowly позволило мне выйти за пределы ожидаемого.

Deep down, I think everyone longs to find out what's beyond the confines of their own culture—the huge world at large.

It all started with "Saudações cara compatriota!" ("Greetings my fellow compatriot!") and in total, we ended up exchanging 103 letters.

My friends and teachers call me an alien, because I like to do some crazy and weird things in school.

They listen to me vent, they reassure me and I know that eventually everything will be okay.

The best thing she ever told me is that she is looking forward to the day when we could exchange a letter in Korean :)

Когда я снова начал взаимодействовать с людьми, я заметил, что стал лучше вести разговоры и глубже связываться с людьми.

Раньше я была девушкой-интровертом, у которой было не так много друзей. Тем не менее, после того, как я присоединилась к Slowly, я стала испытывать ту радость, которая ранее была мне недоступна!

In my childhood, I remember I read a book where that guy used to have a pen friend, whom he never met in his lifetime.

Your letters could heal someone, love a tender soul, uplift the goodness and fight the cause.

I had not, up to that point, received such a unique piece of correspondence, and it sure made its mark on my personal experience.
