What our members say

It's been a really good way to meet people in other parts of the world. I have met quite a few on here, but most of my contacts have been genuine.

This site is strict and protect the users. The platform informed me that one user who has been writing to me is a fraud which I am thankful for! I don’t like that we have to upgrade to meet more other people but this is how it works here. It’s also about luck who contacts you. Overall, I like the strict security part.

I'm so grateful to whoever created this site because it's fantastic. They've connected me with so many people, including some I've met during my travels. Going back to places where we used to take the time is truly wonderful, and rediscovering the joy of having real things to talk about. Je remercie vraiment ceux qui ont créé ce site parce qu’il est super. Ils m’ont mis en correspondance avec plusieurs personnes et même certaines que j’ai pu rencontrer pendant mes voyages. Revenir autant où on prenait le temps et vraiment génial et redécouvrir le fait d’avoir vraiment des choses à se dire!

I like that you can just find a friend to write to and just discuss whatever you want. People are friendly and have different experiences to offer.

I found the whole process very easy and have made lots of new friends. Also love the fact that Global Penfriends are very security conscious and have removed a couple of penpals who may have been scammers. I would thoroughly recommend
