I am a PhD-ed full-time Mom of a little girl in the USA Midwest. I love people but not so much gatherings, so I miss pen pals...particularly during the current COVID distancing. I love to create things either with needle and thread, paint and power tools, mud and leaves, or just imagination. I am very interested in life outside the USA but have only had the joy of traveling to Greece, Turkey, & Costa Rica. However, I plan to visit Scotland & Ireland in a few years so would especially love some pen pals in that area. Silly & serious, book smart & pop culture quoter, I'm a walking quirk. :)
