Hello from Cathy Graham in rural Ottawa, Ontario, the capital city of Canada.
I am 62 and live with my family out near cows and cornfields in a small village with a busy highway running through it. I have two cats. We have two young adult sons.
I love snail mail and have really enjoyed doing more of it during the pandemic to stay connected with people around the world since so much of our lives has been disrupted. I enjoy Postcrossing and Swap-bot so thought I'd try this You've Got Mail site, too.
My choir ended due to the pandemic, unfortunately. I play flute in various groups but haven't done much of that lately with the pandemic. Slowly things are resuming again.
I also adore creative writing and have been writing a book in 100 days which is very challenging. I also love photography, reading, movies, going for walks and bike rides and of course doing snail mail.
I don't collect stamps or coins or paper money so please save those items for those who like it.
I don't like to send huge heavy parcels as I don't like giving all my money to Canada Post but sending light flat mail surprises like cards, bookmarks, stationery, stickers, etc sounds like great fun. Bring it on!
Happy Letter Writing, Everyone! Let's make the world a brighter place with our surprises to brighten others' days.
