Peacock pens

Dearest pen lovers,

I’m so proud and happy to welcome you to my new blog site, Peacockpens.com.

Since 2020 I have been active in the fantastic world of fountain pens. And as always, when you start something, you have to find your way and gain experience. I also had to experience this and go through it, with many ups and downs, but also with beautiful memories and nice contacts with people in the fountain pen community.

Why and how I got into the fountain pen hobby can all be found in the ‘About me‘.

I shared my first experiences through pennen2020.com. I mainly shared some reviews of my pens and some general experiences. Now I’ve gotten to a point where I don’t think the name ‘pennen2020’ is very appropriate anymore. I don’t like the ‘2020’ in it, because it reaches further. Also I want to give it a more personal touch with a link to my family name. My family name is ‘De Pauw’, so this translated means ‘The Peackock’. And to make a long story short, I think it is now clear why I chose ‘peacockpens.com’. It will take some time getting used to it, but we are fully committed.

The language I use will remain the English language because it allows me to reach a wider audience. The really official start is scheduled for April 1, 2023 and this is certainly not an April fool’s joke. Since the new domain name is already hosted, I wanted to post a blog anyway to give some explanation to the casual passer-by. As always, feel free to leave a message with comments or questions.
