This is an international version of the swap 'Simple Long Term Pen Pal' by @BassClarinetNerd Whole idea comes from the swap

I just add a condition : for swappers living OUTSIDE the US.

Except that you should live outside the USA, (and want to write letters) There's nothing you must do on this penpal :)

There's no schedule, no length requirement, no pretty envie ... You will just write a plain, simple letter and get a letter and send back and forth with someone.

Since you will send to someone and someone will also send you a letter, you will end up with two pen pals.

Newbies are allowed. All others need a 4.85 rating.

Please don't sign up if you don't intend on sending a letter and keep in mind this is a kind of international swap!

Let's get writing!

ps. Actually I really agree with @BassClarinetNerd that the postage to overseas is quite pricey.

pps. What do you think of that I categorized this swap in regional? Should it be in international? I have no idea...... @_

You will get more joiners if it's US only. $.85 for a PC to go overseas. Long letters will be at least that or more. I, personally have quit sending anything more than a PC overseas. Just too expensive.

Well, I will join. a dollar or so every few weeks to have a pen pal is not such a big deal to me! Now, if I had to send a letter every day for a year, then it might keep me away!

Ooops...just dawned on me that I am not "outside the US" ...guess I can't join!

Thank you for comments! you're right, @Deeno1105 I was surprised when I got a postcard or a letter from USA +A+

and there's already Us/Canada version of swap right now by @BassClarinetNerd :) Hope it will help for you @Carrie2108

Hope there's another swap next time :) though the system can't guarantee that someone gets the very person whom he/she wants as a partner :Q
