Get to know your pal!

If you like to have a conversation in your mailbox, just as you would in person, this is that swap. This is NOT the kind of letter where you just write about yourself; you will keep your partner in mind throughout your letter and interact with them in your letter. Example: you talk about your town, ask some questions about where your pal lives. If you talk about your hobbies, ask about any hobbies they listed in their profile, etc. It's a 2-way conversation kind of letter; read the partners profile and make your partner KNOW that you were writing to THEM specifically.

Should be a decent length to express your interest in your pal; that might be 2 pages, that might be 4+.
