I used all my luck in it, I guess. I've met an amazing person. While reading his letters, I feel like with him in Spain.

We stayed few days together in Zagreb, discovering the city, sharing experiences and adventures...

I even woke up as early as 5am in the morning, to reply his letter, so that we could utilize every hour of the day, and make 2 cycles within the 24 hours!

They have helped me to understand about my own cultural identity – my way of thinking, my way of life. I am a third-generation Nikkei from São Paulo.

Later on, I met three penpals who became very important in my life.

I've found so many close and fantastic friendships here that trying to narrow it down to just one was impossible...
