I love this website since I can easily find so many penpals! It’s easy to use and pretty safe which is great. The only thing I don’t like are the ads when using the site for free!

Learn about new places and people. Good old fashioned mail. No quick chatting that ends too soon. Learn of historical places and people. Current affairs explained by friends in depth from different perspective from different countries.
