It is a great chance to meet new penpals. I am a member here since many years. It's also a good help to learn more about other countries.

I honestly found so many pen pals here and I hope I can find more. I learnt many different things and I hope to continue exploring.

I think the only downfall is that to have more perks you have to pay. However, I can’t deny that this site isn’t good!

It's nice that there is again a way to get in touch with people around the world via the old postal service, in addition to the whole social media thing.

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.

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!
