non-political, non-profit organization working outside of governments to
promote international understanding (as their letterhead states.).

I'm an American in Ft. Lauderdale looking for penpals anywhere in the
world. I write German, so I am especially interested in German penpals.
I'm a piano and brass teacher, so I love to talk about music. I'm also
interested in just about any sports. At present I have two penpals in
Germany, one in Switzerland, and one in the Mideast. My oldest penpal is
72, my youngest is 20! We're all trying to meet more people, so I may be
able to supply additional names in the future. If you're interested
write to me at this address:

My name is Manfred Schroeder. I live in Berlin and am in college there.
I'm 20 years old, I love American music, clothes and music, and I really
want to meet other Americans. I don't have a computer, so I can't use
Compuserve. I'm a good field-hockey player and I also am the coach of a
boys 10-12 hockey team. I hope to come to the US as soon as possible to
visit, and I'm also looking for a job and a place to stay when I come.
I'm very good at working with others--I really like people, so I can
help Americans learn German if they want. I already spend a lot of time
on the American base in Berlin, and one of the American soldiers
stationed there comes to visit my house regularly. If you're interested,
I'd love to hear from you. My address is:

My name is Davey Jones. I'm currently studying German, Japanese, and
(self-teaching extraordinaire) Esperanto. My hobbies are as mundane as
reading and watching TV, and as diverse as learning the history of all
languages, translating German SF stories, writing computer programs and
raising hamsters. My biggest interests are, I suppose, language
oriented, with German and Japanese being the biggest. My address is:

Hello!  My name's Chrys (short for Christine), and I'm a 20 year-old
senior at the University of Wisconsin - Madison, studying Broadcast News
and Advertising, with an emphasis on political reporting.  I speak
French, Russian and Mandarin, as well as English, but not as well as
English, if you know what I mean.  I'd like to hear from anyone,
anywhere.  When I was younger, I wrote to a lot of different people, but
that was many years ago, I we've lost touch since then.  Some of my
interests include dancing (club, ballroom and ethnic), music (I
love jazz and the symphony, and I play piano and also sax), and some of
the lesser known sports like fencing and crew (rowing).  I used to be on
the teams here at school.  I also love watching ice skating.  I also am
an amateur (very) photographer and "videographer."  I hope to hear from
someone, whether by CompuServe, EMail or regular mail.

From:  Bill Meeker [72037,207]

Hi!  My name is Bill Meeker; I'm a 26-year-old medical student at
New York University School of Medicine.  I was an English major in
college as well as a pre-med; I also minored in German.  In addition
to German, I have an interest in Spanish, which I took in high school
and want to learn better for use as a physician.  I also know a little
spoken Korean and would like to learn more about Korean language and
culture.

My professional interest (so far) is psychiatry, specifically child
psychiatry, although I have some time before I have to commit myself
to a specialty.  Outside of medicine, I am interested in writing (short
stories), reading (short stories, novels, poetry), music (rock,
classical, jazz), physical exercise (weight training, running).  I'm
very interested in language and literature (I earned an M.A. in English
before med school) and now want to direct my attention to "foreign"
languages and cultures.  I'd enjoy hearing from anyone who is interested
in corresponding, especially native speakers of the languages mentioned
above.  My address is:

Hi...  I'd like to be included in your PenPal List. I am a 31 year old
lawyer in Florida. I have studied several languages; German, Italian,
French and Japanese, and am unfortunately less than fluent in these.  I
would like to correspond with other lawyers; preferably abroad, although
I would be interested in hearing from foreign lawyers working in the
U.S.  To further describe myself, I should say that I studied
music/opera (I am a tenor), I am interested in filmmaking/video, travel
and literature.  Frankly, the last time I had international penpals was
in high school, and it would be pleasant to hear from and write to all
who share my interests.  My address is:
