I've gotten to know some really nice people, and I'm learning a lot through messaging. I'm really enjoying it.
It's a great site I do wish I could talk to as many people as I want instead of just five but otherwise it is fantastic!!!
Thank you for providing a service. It really helps create and maintain relationships with other individuals.
This has been outright the most amazing experience of 2025, I'm in awe with the service and the lifelong friends I have met. Thank you for an amazing service.
I found the most wonderful penpals here! I can only recommend it. It might take some time until you find the people who match but it's the same in real life isn't it?
I've tried a few sites and social media groups for pen pals. Global Penfriends is by far the best for making legitimate connections! Of course there have been one or two who seemed like a good match and flaked, but I've made a few meaningful connections with lots of letters and communication. This is the only site I can recommend to others looking to match pen pal connections.
I can't really put into words how much i love receiving snail mail!!! As soon as i find one in my mailbox i have to stop everything, get in a cozy spot and read and lose myself in my letter - i even love pouring over the envelope, writing paper - everything about it!! Thanks for hosting this site where i can fulfill my snail mail dreams and make new friends around the world!! :) :)
individuals may be different in color, size, interest and taste but at the end of the day getting to know others is always a welcome feeling.
this app was very convenient when i started to want to have a pen pal!! my pen pal is very fun and I'm glad I have her.
I would describe my experience as well succed! I started conversations with members from different countries, and even started a friendship with one of them! Be honest, kind and interested in with others have to say and you will receive all of it back.
