I have built meaningful global friendships thanks to this platform. The site does a great job of vetting individuals to avoid individuals looking for partners.

I really like the website. It has given me the opportunity to get to know like-minded people in a safe and secure way. The way the platform looks is also nice. If only I could give an advice, that would be have a button or something similar in our profile where we can let other users know whether we’re searching for a penpal at a certain moment or not.

I wanna meet snail mail penpals and someone I can speak French with since I’m learning the language but I am interested in having penpals from anywhere. Pictures and postcards will sometimes be sent from my end. Feel free to do the same.

If you don't want to pay, you can use the basic version quite well. However, 20% of other people's profiles are blocked.. But that's a fair price for the free version. I appreciate the ability to record sent and received letter mail.

I love being able to connect and form genuine connections with anyone from anywhere! This site is the safest site I've used and feel most comfortable using compared to other pen pal sites. I do wish we got more than one contact credit at a time though! (I feel 2 would suffice)
