When I was young I wrote letters daily.
My best friend and I wrote to each other regularly even though we saw each other every day and lived a few miles apart.
I had various pen pals from all over the world and I wrote love letters to boyfriends while I was at college and university.
So much effort went into the presentation. I moved away from envelopes and began sending small boxes which I decorated like a collage, gifts and mixtapes were included. The excitement when the postman arrived with letters for me was wonderful.
Those were the days!

Thank you though!
I love old handwritten letters (and mixtapes, too:) They're so romantic♥

ReplyDeleteI had a long distance relationship (9years) with a boyfriend, so many letters, I remember the excitement of opening an envelope, now I'm married to him :D
