Slowly became that channel we needed to unfurl our deepest thoughts and emotions. And it worked like a charm for us.

As an Australian living in China, there are periods of time where loneliness and isolation can overwhelm you.

As I spent more time on this app, I slowly – pun intended – learnt to appreciate the letters we exchanged with all those people who I lost connection with.

On my birthday this year, she wrote me one adorable letter and made me two beautiful music playlists which i listen to literally daily.

Peut-être qu'un jour j'en rencontrerai certains et je suis sûre que ce sera tout à fait unique, après avoir échangé à travers de multiples lettres.

Nothing is off the limits with Slowly. There is a plethora of topics I can discuss here without people judging me.

Writing digital letters is definitely easier for a busy working adult like me.

Surprisingly, had almost nothing in common with me, yet our letters were so long that it took us days to read and write an answer.

I will only tell people who are reading this story to never stop sending letters, you never know who is missing you.

But quality takes time, so I would prefer to hear out a brutally honest person than sugarcoated conversations.

Just try your best to search for your "light" in the darkness. It will be worth it to fight for it- trust me!

What is it like to write to a stranger? What is it like to share the same interests?
