    My mother is Asian and my father is British. My father had a pen pal that was a friend of my mother’s, and my mother also decided to write to him. I believe they wrote for about two years before deciding that if they want a relationship, they’ll have to get married. So my mother moved to Britain and they were married within the month.

    Before the internet (and Facebook) became more accessible, my mother would write to her family often and occasionally call, which was expensive.
