Happy Valentine's day everyone!! I hope you spend a day surrounded by love, either by your boyfriend/girlfriend, or by your friends and family ^^ Since Valentine's day is in the cold February I always thought this day is the perfect excuse to cuddle with your loved one and watch some gooey romantic films/series while drinking some delicious hot cocoa!

How about you? What are some of your favourite fictional couples?

Penpals & St. Valentine's chocolate

One of my hobbies since a teenager was having Penpals. I always loved trading snail mail with friends I was able to make around the world! It was such joy and fun. Even today I maintain some friends from those times, and they are really precious to me. 

This week I received a super package from my girl friend from Japan. I always loved Japan and I really want to visit some day, so having a Japanese friend is something I really treasure. We've become really close all this time.

She is so sweet and unbelievable generous, and this time around she showered me with Studio Ghibli goodies and St. Valentine's chocolate. In Japan it is a habit to offer not only your boyfriend/girlfriend chocolate, but as well, to your friends. It is called "Friend choco", so she sent me a Hello Kitty box. The chocolate was strawberry flavored and oh so good! 

I'm going to answer her right now and send her to some tasty chocolate. <3

How about you? Ever had penpals? <3
