Hello, I’m Maria. I’d describe myself as friendly, outgoing, and sociable. I’ve had pen friends since the age of 14 and love writing and corresponding.I enjoy reading non-fiction, travel, and biographies; photography; gardening; music, especially Rock n Roll, Country, Soul, Motown, Ballads, and all the old crooners. I’m also a big fan of the radio (I always have a radio on in the kitchen). In my spare time, I enjoy arts and crafts, making cards, and baking.The seaside is my favorite place to be.
