It's an amazing experience. I look forward to reading my messages after a long day at school or responsibilities at home. Everyone is so nice, they LIKE learning about different cultures, and this is why I love it :)
It’s nice to see so many different people in one place. It can be kind of difficult to get a chain of letters going, but everyone is super nice and the site has great safety features!
It's good to meet new people all over the world. This improves language skills and gives perspective to new cultures
a website is as good as the people who are on there... I value the different ways to become a pen pal. even i am not interested in snail mail, as it is too expensiv. in the past, i made the experience it is a great thing to not only get to know a person, but also the life where this person is living. it is like travelling without leaving home.
Its very easy to navigate things, ensures safety when verifying profiles, no paywall, and i can find people of my age without being called out for being too young!
I enjoy learning from new people, about new things, from new places that I might never get to see. Live a little adventure through meeting and making new friends. Plus I love writing letters, well writing Anything really! So it's perfect!
This website allowed me to learn from the people I engaged with; knowing that people come from different culture and backgrounds. The struggles of everyday life and how they are coping with it made me feel I am not alone. Just being there, writing to each other makes one feel that even the smallest things matters….knowing you have a mail.;)
I really enjoyed this when I was on here 6-7 years ago. I had met a great pen pal and lost touch, but he was a genuine person. Hope to connect with him or someone else in the future
This is a fantastic site to make international connections. Great scam detection too so you feel safe.
Thanks to GPF I had an opportunity to meet great pen pals over the world and find out how people live in other countries.
