This website allowed me to learn from the people I engaged with; knowing that people come from different culture and backgrounds. The struggles of everyday life and how they are coping with it made me feel I am not alone. Just being there, writing to each other makes one feel that even the smallest things matters….knowing you have a mail.;)

100 % happy about this app. I found few very good and dear friends and step by continuously every day. I would recommend it to everyone who wants to make new friends, but in a slow way with no pressure.

I live in a flat landlocked country with long winters and short summers. It can be very beautiful here, but I love the sea. The site expands my world when my pen pals tell me about their countries. It's not like watching National Geographic. I feel like I've been to the mountains or the sea.
