Do you remember writing letters to your pen pals when you were a kid? It was so much fun to swap stories and ideas with a friend who was far away. These days, letter writing has fallen by the wayside in favor of texting and emailing. But there’s something special about putting pen to paper (or fingers to keyboard) and communicating that way. If you’re looking for a simple, old-fashioned way to keep in touch with someone, why not try sending them a letter using this template? It’ll only take a few minutes, and your friend will love getting something personal in the mail!
First Letter to a Pen Pal
Date
Dear Pen Pal’s Name,
I’m 22 years old and just graduated from college. I found your name on www.thepenpalwebsite.com when researching how to connect with people worldwide through correspondence like you! You seem like an amazing person who is very creativity-driven; that’s exactly what my new job as an intern in a graphic design company requires, too – creativity of all sorts, including advertisements for print media or online services our clients will use (think Nike).
We’re always looking for talented individuals like you to help us create the best product for our clients. I think it would be beneficial for both of us if we got to know each other better through letter writing. What do you think?
I hope to hear from you soon!
Your pen pal,
[Your Name]
