I am really lucky to have met so many nice, genuine, friendly people and made such sincere friendships.​
Thanks to everyone who wrote and apologies to those to whom I couldn't reply.
***I am not looking for any new penpals at the moment, but definitely, definitely want to stay in touch with those who I write to already :))***

I am a quiet girl, but sincere and warm hearted. At the moment I am studying full time -  I have not long started an English language and linguistics course in the exciting, friendly Northern city of Liverpool. When I am not studying I like photography,​ books, writing, travel, film, the countryside,​ walking..
I am always looking for adventure, and I hope to find genuine friendship and good conversation​ here!

Never was so much owed by so many to so few

Look well to this day, For it is life.
In its brief course lies all the realities of existence.
For yesterday is but a memory and tomorrow only a vision.
