When I was young I was so interested in calligraphy and handwriting that I begged for a calligraphy kit. Those pens are long gone, but the love of writing with foudntain pens stuck around. During the pandemic when everyone was baking sour dough bread, I was collecting everything under the sun. From succulents and plants to, well, you guessed it… fountain pens! It started with a Lamy Safari and some Jinhao Swan pens, eventually resulting in a Wancher x Sailor pen. Then it was the ink options. Then it was the other brands of pens. And more inks. It’s a vicious cycle, really. But at least it keeps me busy.
