I like this platform and I signed up to get snail mail pals. It would be nice to have more features for free but overall a great website!

It's nice to meet real people and make friends. People speak very respectfully thanks to this website. And I made great friends named Max, Timothy and Alastair. This site is truly incredible. Gerçek insanlarla tanışıp arkadaş olmak çok güzel. İnsanlar bu Web sitenin sayesinde oldukça saygılı bir şekilde konuşuyorlar. Ve ben de Max, Timothy ve Alastair adında harika dostlar edindim. Bu site gerçekten inanılmaz bir şey.

i like global penfriends because it really cares about safety like sharing contact details only if trust is build, that’s good but maybe it’s not necessary that people need to have at least two other two way chats to share contact details with a pen pal

It’s a really good website and super easy to finish people to talk to!But the only issue is the communication, you have to constantly refresh the website just to see if you’ve had a message or not and I get you can use emails but it’s still a pain to go on emails every single time I’m wondering if I’ve gotten a message back.And then it’s also very annoying when people don’t reply because their account has been inactive for a while but it doesn’t state that anywhere or suddenly alert the person in a better way that a have a message after a really long time.over all an amazing website and I’ve gained a lot of penpals from it!
