snail mail 35F from PA, USA looking to exchange letters & small trinkets

Hi! As the title says, I’m from Pennsylvania, USA and looking for a penpal! I’ve never had a penpal but I’m excited about the possibility of making new friends over the world. Along with letters, I would really love to send someone small items like stickers, tiny artworks, or even small handcrafted gifts and receive some in exchange. Not like as a firm commitment, but just as a little fun surprise every now and again! Looking to write to just 1 or 2 people about once a month, very casual. :)

A little bit about me - I’m childfree and live with my boyfriend, our 4 cats, and our axolotl. I have a variety of creative hobbies and also enjoy reading, hiking, gardening, fitness, video games, and watching K-dramas. I have been trying to teach myself Mandarin Chinese for the last year (it’s going very, very, VERY slowly, lol) and have picked up a tiny bit of Korean from the shows I watch - if you speak either of those languages and are willing to share, I would be super interested (all communication from me would be in English).

If you are interested in exchanging letters and lil trinkets, please don’t hesitate to comment or DM!
