I have met a couple people to message with on the app, I just have not met anyone who is willing to send postcards or letters yet. Hopefully soon.

It helps you easily find friends with the same interests as you, but people don't always respond to your messages. I like how a lot of it is connected to culture, like the cultural keepsake.

I found amazing pals here! Certainly no stalkers here. I am yet to try Snail Mail, though. Overall, I am having a wonderful experience with the website - easy navigation too.

As a teenager I had 14 penpals from all over the world and I absolutely loved it. Now being a widow and having some free time on my hands I thought how wonderful it would be to have New penpals from around the world to write to that was my main reason for joining this wonderful Site.
