I’m a 37-year-old South African wife and mama who spends a suspicious amount of time thinking about food, plants, books, and whether I can successfully grow something from a random seed I found. 🌱😂
I’m a homebody at heart. Give me a cosy house, something delicious cooking in the kitchen, a good book, a garden project and a glass of Coke, and I’m pretty much sorted.
I love cooking and baking, reading, gardening, writing, and having those unexpectedly deep conversations that start with “So, random question…” and somehow end three hours later with us discussing life, childhood memories and whether people are inherently good. 😂
I’m also a little bit sentimental. I love handwritten letters, pretty stationery, little stories about ordinary days, photographs, recipes, funny mishaps and hearing about the tiny details that make someone’s life theirs. I think there’s something wonderfully old-fashioned about getting to know a stranger slowly, one letter at a time.
I’m married, have a little girl who keeps life entertaining, and our household also includes a very opinionated dog who I adore!
I’m happiest around people who are genuine, kind, curious and don’t take themselves too seriously. I’d love to hear about your life — your favourite things, your traditions, the place you call home, what you’re reading, what you’re cooking, what you’re dreaming about, and even the completely mundane stuff.
Basically, I’m looking for a stranger who might eventually become a friend.
Someone I can exchange stories with, laugh with, learn from, and occasionally send a ridiculously long letter to because apparently I had a lot to say. 😂
If you’re the kind of person who still gets excited when there’s a letter in the mailbox… I think we might get along. 💌
Since it’s South Africa and you might wait 366 days for a letter we can do email at first. Also happy to jump right in and do snail mail!
