I was so happy that I went around the house saying "I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM JAPAN"

I remember back in 80's I used to write real mail made out of paper & pen with stamps and such.

It is wonderful to make friends from a completely different part of the World and to see their country through their eyes.

Till now we haven't exchanged numbers or want to connect on some other apps. Honestly we are happy writing letters to each other and not planning to change that.

Each letter were songs, stories, interesting questions and interesting nicknames developed into a beautiful friendship.

It's like finding Atlantis! I found a lot of nice people who share the same interests as I am.

But here, I can get a new friend everyday.

She took a plane and drove 200km by car to see... me? Just... me?

When I listened to her sweet, soft voice speaking lovely Persian words to me from across the world, it melted my heart.

เขาอายุมากกว่าฉัน 60 ปี แต่เรายังคงหาสิ่งที่สามารถเห็นพ้องต้องกันและแบ่งปันได้

I was skeptical at first. I even considered myself a person no one wanted to know.

It both helps me improve my language skills and the communication skills that I lack in real life.
