Hello. I love making friends and hope to make more through becoming penpals. I have a penpal with whom I connected when we were 9 and still remain in contact. We visited one another a couple of times. I hosted an exchange student years ago from Belgium who I still consider my daughter. Wonderful opportunities to learn. I have Parkinson's Disease, had Deep Brain Stimulation surgery & no longer have tremors. What a blessing that has been! I have my life back as much as possible. I especially love animals. nature and gardening, have a dog and 2 cats.
