I really like this site. It works really well to get into contact with new people all around the world. I have made one friendship with someone I'd never have met otherwise.

A nice way to find others who want pen pals. I've found a few people who we share messages with and learn about each other. Mostly in English language.

Very easy to use and negotiate around. Very efficient. Free version is great but there's the option to upgrade.

Global Penfriends is a good site, many options. But I miss being able to go backwards in the list you get. If I want to find someone I looked at before I need to start all over.
