we wrote a letter to each other...

Writing letters that you won’t open for five years is a rare and meaningful way to create a time capsule of your emotions and dreams. At KerKerland in Taichung, this enchanting concept turns letter writing into a heartwarming journey. When we first visited, we were touched by how the process encouraged us to slow down, reflect deeply on the present moment, and imagine the future together. The venue offers a unique setup: a variety of beautifully designed postcards priced around 40NTD (~$1.60 SGD), letter writing sets, and time capsule drawers to select the exact year and month you want your letter to be mailed back—options span multiple future years, like 2026 through 2036. The staff are incredibly friendly and supportive, guiding you through the letter writing process with plenty of pens and a helpful address-writing guide, ensuring your letter will reach its destination without a hitch. One of the standout features is the overseas postage service, which for around 80NTD (~$3.20 SGD) ensures your letter is securely mailed internationally at your chosen future date. This is perfect for sending letters back to yourself or loved ones living abroad. We chose to receive our letters back in Singapore, timed to coincide with major milestones such as moving into our new home, creating an emotional connection across time and space. This experience transforms a typical visit to a cafe into an intimate moment of reflection and anticipation. The act of sealing your letter and leaving it in a time capsule drawer brings an unusual sense of trust and excitement—wondering how your future self or partner will react when reading these messages filled with hope, love, and candid feelings. If you are visiting Taichung and want to create a memorable and sentimental keepsake, KerKerland is highly recommended. It’s not just about writing a letter; it’s about building a bridge between your present and future selves, capturing moments of love and dreams that you can hold onto for years to come. Besides the sentimental value, the pricing is reasonable for a truly unique experience—totaling approximately 260NTD (~$10.50 SGD) for a postcard, letter set, and overseas postage. It’s a thoughtful gift idea for couples, friends, or even personal reflection. For travelers or locals, this offers a creative way to slow down and savor meaningful moments during a bustling trip or daily life.
