Writing to a pen pal in Mexico
8 members of PenPalConnect live in Mexico. Here is what helps a first letter land.
✍️ A few words to start and end with
Nobody expects a whole letter in their language. A greeting and a sign-off in it says you thought about who is reading — and gives them something to correct, which is a fine way to start a friendship.
Spanish
- Hello
- Hola
- Opening a letter
- Querido / Querida …:
- Thank you for your letter
- Gracias por tu carta.
- Signing off
- Un abrazo,
