I have met so many beautiful people here. Thanks to this website, I have close friends living kilometers away yet so close to my heart. This website has also improved itself a lot since I joined.

I wish I could delete the conversations of people who don't respond anymore (rather than waiting until the system says they are stale) but other than that its a good site.

Around a year or two ago, I met a girl from France on this site and we chatted online for a while, realising we had lots in common and that it was really fun to chat about differences in Scottish and French culture, music, food, school etc. We sent each other physical mail and i still have the pictures she sent and the zine she made me up on my wall. We now text and voice message every couple weeks!!! So glad I used globalpenfriends!!!
