What our members say

I really like the idea of a penfriend site! 😊 It is a great way for people from different places to meet, communicate, share experiences, and learn about different cultures. The site can help users build genuine friendships through messages!

I found 2 penfriends on this site. It's easy to navigate and I love that the site is not full with adds. Helps to use it even on my phone. The search function helps to pick a person to write to. The limit per day for non paying users is a bit annoying but I understand that globalpenfriends.com need a reason that you're joining.

This isn't a typical penpal site (you know, where the women get asked re: romantic interest). Global Penfriends is deliberately selective -- focused on building genuine friendships. Thank you!
