VOICE MESSAGE INTRO LETTER (something new!)

For this swap, you will use a voice recorder (the kind on your phone, tablet or digital voice recorder) and make an audio letter introduction to your partner. Because different file formats work differently on various devices, we'll keep this intro to 8 minutes or shorter. You must be able to send and receive voice messages to participate in this swap.

Simply introduce yourself and email your 'letter' to your partner. Include your name, age, where you live and what you like to do. This intro should be the same as when you write an introductory letter to a new pen pal, but instead of writing it, you'll be recording it.

Once you receive your partner's introduction, you can decide if you'd like to keep in touch via voice message, email or snail mail - it's up to you.

For many years, I've been corresponding with "pen pals" via cassette tape letters. Using a voice recorder is the new trend, since cassette tapes are becoming obsolete. You might really like this once you try it, so I hope you'll jump in!

Any questions, please email me. Thanks!
