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!

I related so much since I just had a "what if" moment then and was feeling rather melancholic.

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 was anxious and nervous in the beginning, but now I am willing to trust this friendship with all of my heart.

This girl two thousand kilometers away, who just wrote to me, a total stranger, here on Slowly, became such a big part of my everyday life.

In Russia it is so hard to find someone, who could understand you and you would talk freely, without any fears!

I want to share some glimpses of my new found friendship, thanks to this wonderful app.

I never expected such lively and diverse conversations, which constantly break down stereotypes that I have about other countries.

I took off my mask and for the first time I ever tried to be honest.

Я почав користуватись Slowly від жовтня 2018 року, коли готував післядипломний курс із застосування нових технологій у викладанні англійської мови.

Politically there are no good relations but through Slowly I made some Indian friends. I am glad to have such a deep conversation with them.
