[SNAIL-MAIL?? No Application Form Needed!! Why waste your and my time and stamps...]
- F O L L O W P R O M P T S :
- You will NOT need all "prompts"; I, the editor, like brief but interesting individuals.
- Minimum: Major FOCUS TOPIC + Name + Address + ... Footnote.
DO IT NOW!!
- Use only the "prompts" you need.
- You pre-edit your details.
- Re-write briefly, clearly, in English on one page or aerogramme.
- Submit by traditional mail to me:-
Amateur-Editor PTSSL
Box 556, Pascoe Vale
AU Vic 3044, Australia
Try: Block-Copy of above blue template-letter/prompter. Then edit to suit yourself. Then Email to: mailto:penfriendlister@pacific.net.au?subject=MToEditorPTSSL&body=[ You can block-copy text in blue template area above. Then remove [. . .] and not-needed prompts, as you fill in some of your details -- as you choose. ] [ OR, because I, the editor, prefer brief but interesting individuals, SEND Minimum: (a TOURISTY CITY or EXPAT-community or YEAR you love and/or an INDUSTRY or JOBSKILL you know or study as Major FOCUS TOPIC) + Your Name + Address + ... + Footnote]; or snail-mail.
REMINDER for TRADITIONAL MAIL USERS ("snail-mail"):
I ask everyone who writes to Penpal Tourist Subject-Sorted Lists to name their subject of focus, even when not submitting details for listing.
It helps me to send you info or maybe a selected list. Of course, that requires return postage. 2 IRCs or a self-addressed envelope with Australian stamp is OK.
I like to confirm Aussies. I normally relay Oz addresses only to o'seas addresses.
You Know How to:
- Use Flag-Cat-Keyword tags if seeking selected contacts or submitting your details;
- Focus on the touristy-place, life&time, industry, skill or study you know and love best;
- Keep editor happy with standard pattern of details and use of keywords for your Major Subject of Focus; or patterns of MapDot Protocols for expatriates or backpackpackers.
Later on:
- You may ask to be removed (Free);
- Or you may ask to have your details changed (small donation suggested).
GOOD LUCK! We hope you're just
the right kind of person
to contribute to,
and gain from, extramural opportunity
and international
understanding.
And new pals! Peace! - "ExtraMuros"
BEYOND-WALLS LOVE KNOWLEDGE WISDOM HUMILITY...
Footnote:
"Extra muros" is latin for beyond the walls.
Hence, "extramural" in the now global language, english.
In my youth, I studied Esperanto...
"Extra Muros" was motto of Ballarat Teachers' College.
