I enjoy talking with people all over the world. It's fascinating to learn about their cultures. It's also fun to learn about all the stuff we have in common. Great site for introverts like me to make friends.

I was house bound and wanted to reach out to others who may be going through the same crap I was and found a wonderful pen pal in another country who I have been communicating with since April.

This website is really nice for finding all sorts of friends! Sadly some people can get inactive for weeks, if not months, which is a bit sad. But once you find someone who's filling to talk to you then it's very pleasant and I'm very grateful for this website!

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 haven’t been here long but I have met a couple wonderful people on here, one I can call a friend and another I hope to soon call a friend. Both follow Jesus just as well as I do and to me it’s very important to find friends who are also Christian. I’ve loved being able to slow down and write letters to them as well as experience the excitement that comes from getting letters in the mail again!
