A lot of incoming letters! (Part II)

Without a long wait, here is part two of my incoming letters. And as I really got a lot of mail there will definitely be a third part in the next days. I should do it more regularly again ;)

Just like the last post I'll start this one with a letter from Ines. Shortly after we met in London, where I gave her my reply to her last letter in person she wrote me a reply - this girl is just way too fast sometimes! It's a Chirstmas letter inside a Christmas card with some Christmas goodies. And she put Christmas confetti inside the envelope so my whole floor was covered with it. I HATE when people do this, to be honest ;D


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And another letter from Stephanie from Germany. I love that we make our letters so simple so that there's no distraction and it's all about the content of the letter. Hopefully I can meet her in person soon ♥


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I really wished I could've shown you this letter earlier, but after we thought it got lost and she was about to write a new one it suddenly reached me. It got stuck at customs for over a month! Just because she had send some sweets. Or maybe HONG KONG sounded too suspicious, who knows? So, this is the first letter by Vicky from Hong Kong. Hopefully it won't take two months again for her replies. Stupid customs!


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Then I finally got a reply by Sarah from Germany. It's only her second letter but she's a real nice person! Just like a lot of my recently gained penpals she lives in a city next to mine :D Her letter is a folded Christmas themed one and so lovely! I mean... look at this adorable meerkat Christmas card *____* Meerkats are by far my favourite animals and this card is soooo cute! She also included some tea from the Maledives where she has been for her honeymoon in November. That was also the main topic of her letter: stories about the trip. I am SO jealous! 



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Here is a second letter by Kamilla from Denmark. Never expected her to answer my last letter as fast as she did! She included a postcard of Kopenhagen (I love to receive postcards from the places my penpals live at!) and I really love her envelope although I usually hate the colour pink, haha.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This letter from Michelle from America reached me quite unexpected. We had agreed to become penpals quite a long time ago and she wanted to write the first letter but not until now I received it. And I have to say: this was totally worth all the waiting! This is definitely one of the most amazing letters I've received recently. She had put soooo much effort into it and there were surprises everywhere. Can't wait for her future letters ♥




~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This one is from my lovely penpal Alieke from The Netherlands. Everytime one of her letters reaches me I get excited like a little child on Christmas as she was the first person I ever received a penpal letter of and since then our friendship just became stronger and stronger with every letter. We send each other little gifts with the letter, BUT it is definitely more about the letters as we can write for ages without getting the other one bored. She is such a fascinating person ♥ Hopefully I can meet her soon next year and visit a medieval market with her!

What a crazy week!

Well, what can I say? My last post was only a week ago, BUT since then I received 11 letters. 11... It's hard to believe for me that all this letters reached me within only one week, but I am so happy to have my lovely pen pals in my life and although I'm a little stuck on replying to each letter right now - imagine you answer 3 letters the one day and the next day you get 3 new - but I love to make every reply special and fitting to the person who receives it ♥ So, today you'll see 11 lovely letters from 11 lovely people from all over the world! The order isn't the actual order I received the letters, they just happened to come that way when I took the pictures earlier!

AND: feel free to leave a comment so I can see that this blog is really worth the effort and people are actually reading what I'm writing ;) Should be possible for everybody by now without any problems. You have to use the left button to send me your comment (better copy your comment before sending so it doesn't get lost if anything will go wrong!)

So, let's start with the first letter I received by Maeva from France (sorry my keyboard can't put the dots above the e, I'm afraid :D) I totally love the envelope! The ghost is so damn cute *_____* And we seem to have a lot in common so I'm curious for her next letter!



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


The next one I like to show you is from Neus from Spain. Actually somewhere close to Barcelona, but it's easier to pretend she's from there directly :D It was her first letter to me as well and I love the drawings and the autumn touch she gave to the letter.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

On to the letter from Jariya. We've exchanged quite a few letters by now and I'm still surprised on how fast letters between our two countries travel. Good for us as she is such a sweet person and I'm always so happy when I've a new letter from her in my mailbox :) And look at this super cute panda ♥



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Another first letter that reached me. Elizabeth from the USA and me only recently decided to become pen pals as she just asked me on Facebook and I can only hardly say "No", so here we are. And I don't regret my decision! We seem to have a lot in common and the paper she used is so pretty! Can't wait for her reply to my letter :) And she used watercolours to paint the envelope. This idea never occured to me before, but maybe I give it a go in the future!



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The next letter is from my best friend here in Germany: Vanessa. This time I have to post two pictures so you can see her amazing letter! I did some of these as well and it's always so much fun to make them as each and everyone can turn out different when one makes them to the likes of the other :)


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Then I got an unexpected reply from Lilith from America. Her first letter had been completely about Harry Potter, but this time she was finally talking about herself as well so I could get to know her better. This time we discovered our love for Supernatural ♥ I guess we'll have a lot to talk about in our next letters :D


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The next letter came from Anri from Japan. It was only a short one, but the paper was really cute ♥ I LOVE pandas! And now I know what "I love Ireland" in Japanese means :)


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And here's another first letter. From Sarah from Germany. Actually she only lives about 20-30 minutes by car away from me! Her letter was Halloween themed and I really enjoyed the monsters on the inside of the letter! Looking forward to more letters with this lovely girl!


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I also got the third letter from Emma from Scotland. Here letters are always something special as she has the cutest stationary ever! This time she put the envelope into a clear one and put little stars everywhere - actually, after opening it, I had the stars everywhere in my room, on my clothes and on my desk too :D I also really love the stickers she had sent me: Minnie Mouse ♥ So cute! 


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This post seems to contain a lot of first letters, so here is another one: Martine M. from the Netherlands (I have to put the M. for her last name as I've another Martine from the Netherlands as a pen pal ;D) She has sent me so many cute gifts and I was really speechless when I opened the envelope as I usually don't get gifts like that in a first letter. I especially love the cow! And we seem to have a lot in common, so I can't wait for more letters to be exchanged!



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And last but not least I FINALLY got a reply to my letter from Alieke from the Netherlands ♥ I really waited impatiently for her reply as I already loved this girl after her first letter. I've already the feeling I've known her for ages and not only for three months. She also send me a CD of the music she is making with a friend and she is really talented! And she has sent me tea! I LOVE tea so if any of my pen pals really reads this: send me your favourite teas ;)
