23F looking for my first penpal

Hi! I’m I’ve been interested in trying new things and wanting to make new friends, so I think a pen pal is a great idea for me.

I’m 23 and from NYC. I won’t try to convince anyone that I’m the most interesting person in the world, I’m definitely far from that, but I’m at a point in my life where I finally feel ready to step outside my comfort zone. Socializing has never come easy to me but writing things out is something I can do well. I’d love to get to know new people and create meaningful friendships along the way. Who knows, maybe one day we can meet irl!

The reason I’m interested in finding a penpal is because I want to learn more about the world and the people in it.

A little about me: -I love trinkets, stickers, street art, and animals -I regularly journal -I have two cats -I’m currently teaching myself how to sew -I just started learning French (it would be great to find someone to practice with) -I want to get back into crafting on a regular basis - I want to learn more about photography

EDIT: Thanks so much for all the responses! Honestly I’m a bit overwhelmed by how many people are interested in corresponding so it might take me awhile to read all of them :) thank you again I’m really excited to start writing to some of you
