Description:

What did you do for your summer vacation? Where did you go? What delicious things did you eat and drink? Did you see any delightful sights, people, or experiences?

In this easy, newbie friendly, international swap, you will write (by hand or neatly typed/printed) one pen pal letter to a fellow swapper some where out there across the globe or across the street about your summer vacation. The letter should be one page, front and back, written by you with your original content.

To quote Isak Dinesen, "I am an arm chair traveler...." I love to travel, in my imagination or for real.

Your pen pal letter should provide an upbeat, delightful, descriptive peek into your summer vacation and provide a mini mental vacation for your recipient.

If you care to send something small along with your letter, please feel free - it's not necessary but may help give a more local flavor: postcard, picture, bar coaster, local menu, matchbox, ad magnet from where you went.

All that is required is one pen pal letter, one page front and back, sent via first class mail to your recipient.

Absolutely no postcards allowed in lieu of letters - this must be a full page letter sent in an envelope. You are welcome to enclose a postcard in addition to the letter.
