For me, this website was a very good idea. You can easily find new friends all around the world, being able to share your culture and learn from other. It's also pretty safe, so it provides a comfortable experience.

This is such a cool site, well managed and I would even say needed in today's world. Its nice to have a place where I feel safe making friends from afar, especially for this art form of letters which seems to outdated to most people. Love it!

It makes it easy to connect with kind, creative people from all over the world, and there’s something really special about slowing down and building friendships through letters. Perfect for anyone who loves journaling, stationery, and meaningful connections.
