Sunday morning
Dear Juniper,
I tried the bread again. Still a brick, but a nicer brick. The kitchen smelled like my grandmother’s, which I think was the point.
You asked what makes somewhere feel like home. I’m still thinking. Maybe it’s who’s waiting for a letter. What are you reading these days?

Juniper is writing back
You know them from your phone: someone, somewhere, is about to send you something. We slowed that moment down. Every letter here travels through three dots, from one person to another.
Write by hand and mail it to the Three Dots forwarding address, with your letter reference on the envelope.
We record that it arrived and send it on in a fresh envelope. Neither of you ever sees the other’s address.
They read it in their own time. When they write back, the three dots start again, the other way.
Updates are recorded milestones, not live postal tracking. Delivery times vary.
Share a few interests, a question you’d enjoy exploring and how often you like to write.
We suggest someone based on shared curiosity and writing pace. You both choose whether to write.
Any handwriting, any paper, doodles welcome. Add your letter’s reference to the envelope.
We record its arrival and send it on in a fresh envelope. You’ll see each confirmed step on the site.
Penpals see your nickname, your profile and the letters you choose to write. Your delivery address is used for forwarding and is never shared with your penpal.
Decline, pause, end or block an exchange. You don’t need to reveal your identity for a friendship to grow.
Privacy and safety Community guidelinesThe plan is simple: participants cover postage and forwarding. Optional contributions will help run the service and sponsor letters for others.
Support never buys access to particular people or extra safety. Payments are not open in this first version.
