I remember having a pen pal from Ukraine around the year 2000 (7th-9th grade - can't remember when anymore). It was fun, but really only lasted the single school year. We were told to exchange email addresses and not physical addresses, but she didn't have an email (or didn't actually want to continue lol). Either way it was cute for a couple of 12-14 year olds from across the globe to discuss the differences in our lives.
