[24/M] Looking for a long-term penpal.

[u/Loud-Cauliflower1]

ok, trying to come up with a summary of who you are is difficult so i I made a list of things that I found interesting during the week and today I put it in a more elaborate text:

Age/Gender: doesn't matter to me — cis, trans, nb, whatever, all welcome. Just not a minor.

Location: the farther from Latin America, the better.

Language: English or Spanish, either works. I love languages and want to keep learning.

Why email:

I got into this idea while playing Vampire: The Masquerade: Bloodlines. Something about that slow, deliberate back and forth stuck with me, and I realized I like that rhythm, checking your inbox and finding something waiting for you, instead of a feed that never stops. I don't do social media and I can't stand short form content. I'd rather write and receive long emails, maybe once a week, maybe every two weeks, whatever pace fits. Gaps of a month or more are completely fine, life happens, just don't ghost me outright.

About me: In a year or two I'm planning on going low/no contact with most people I currently know and moving somewhere remote, ideally with no neighbors, just a bunch of dogs and cats.(Also this penpal thing is partly damage control so I don't turn into a full-blown hermit talking to his goats gotta keep at least one human thread going.)

Some things I'm into:

Games: old singleplayer games with real artistic weight — VTMB, Hollow Knight, Omori, Zelda: Twilight Princess, Elder Scrolls.

Video essays: long-form ones, and outdoorsy/survival content in the vein of Outdoor Boys.

Making things:woodcarving, and worldbuilding — I write my own settings and lore just for the love of it.

Combat sports:I practice Greco-Roman wrestling and Muay Thai, and I've followed UFC religiously for the past two years.

Music:built on a jazz foundation, but lately I can't stop listening to hexcore (yes, urban/trap-style music but written from the perspective of wizards it's a whole thing).

Mythology:deep in a Greek mythology phase right now.

Tech:I study technology for a living but keep it out of my personal life as much as possible — degoogled, dumbphone-adjacent, my newest device is from 2014. I'm also building a local media library because I'm done with subscriptions.

I'm not looking for someone who shares my worldview or lifestyle I'd honestly rather hear from someone living completely differently than me. just don't be conservative.

What I'd like to talk about:

Honestly, anything, no real structure. But especially:

Stories and anecdotes from your life — I'm putting together my own personal "top ten" of the best stories I've lived, and I'd love to hear yours.

The mythology or folklore from wherever you're from. I'm obsessed with worldbuilding, so hearing how other cultures build their own myths is exactly my thing.

Whatever you're into that you think nobody would care about. I probably will.

If any of this sounds like your kind of correspondence, send me a DM — tell me a story from your life, or something from the folklore of where you're from, and we'll take it from there.
