Was looking to get back to writing and corresponding. Loved having a penpal as a kid and was happy to find one within 1 week of signing up. The website needs some updating and a more pleasant UX/UI experience but its a great service.
It's really great I just wish free members could edit your profile more than 3 times a month. Other than that it's really great
I managed to find penpals and global friends! Its actually a really small world because sometimes your penpal knows someone in your life, like what happened to me, where i met my penpals friend even though we were in two different countries, pretty cool!
Great to hear from someone from another country and ask question on where to go and see in your travels.
i have just started, enjoying it so far and meeting new people, hope to build new friendships.......
This website is really good. I like how it checks if every user is safe and I never met a fraud here.
A lovely platform to meet genuine people exchange, cultures, and build meaningful friends worldwide.
Sadly have not connected with many people willing to share their life experiences or cultural differences
I love this website. It gave me the opportunity to see the other side of the world, and I've made many friends. I feel lucky to have opened this website in 2023. It gave me the opportunity to communicate with people from different cultural backgrounds and share things we both like. I feel incredibly happy about this. Perhaps this is some kind of destiny guiding me? In any case, I'm grateful for the existence of this website. 我很喜欢这个网站，它给我看见世界另一端的机会，我也认识了很多朋友，我感到幸运，在23年打开了这个网站，我有了和不同文化背景人们的交流机会，分享着我们共同喜欢的事物，我对此感到无比的幸福，这或许也是冥冥之中命运的指引吗？无论如何，感谢这个网站的存在
Id recommend this site for anyone wanting to make friends all over the world and for introverted people like myself
Start finding penpals and new friends from all around the world.
