Lovely Letters Sept Link Up & Sign Up for Your Oct Pen Pals

Welcome to Lovely Letters, a snail mail exchange where we pair you up with new blogger pen pals every month. We try our best to pair you up with someone in a different country or at least a different part of the country so you can have friends wherever you go! See all the previous exchanges here.

This month my partner was Judy from Santa Clara. I have been encouraged by reading her blog posts. I love her blog name and tag line “My Skin and Bones are a Rental: This Time is Borrowed and Here is My Log.” I finished my weekly gratitude series recently, but Judy currently does a Thankful Thursdays series, so you can continue to practice gratitude with her!

We’re currently in Greece, so I’ll be updating this post later with the package Judy sent me. Meanwhile, this is what I sent out for this month’s theme: COMFORT.

Included in package:
one lovely letter
postcards
face mask
eye mask for travel
tea infuser
japanese kit kats
scarf for warmer weather

**UPDATE: I loved the package Judy put together for me. I’m listening to her CD and wearing the red cat slippers as I’m writing this! :) Also eating the botan rice candies and ice pops (jju jju ba) brings back so many childhood memories. So thankful for her package!

Since everyone is getting their packages at different times, the link up will be open until Oct 31st.


This month I’m co-hosting with Paige again who will now be a Lovely Letters co-host on a semi-regular basis. I love all her outdoor adventures and her 52 lists series on her blog, so go check them out!

Please contact me if you have participated in a previous exchange, and you’d like to co-host a Lovely Letters link up. For more detailed info READ THIS. If you want to tweet about it, you can use the hashtag #lovelyletters or tag @estherjulee to be retweeted.

Who were your pen pals last month?

xoxo esther
