I was house bound and wanted to reach out to others who may be going through the same crap I was and found a wonderful pen pal in another country who I have been communicating with since April.

It feels so safe here since humans always review the accounts and it’s also interesting. The way tge profile is built and the questions that are on each profile make it easy for people to talk

Very easy to navigate and kind of limited when your account isn't upgraded. But over time you can gradually make friends from around the world, or even selective regions.

I met a friend I love very much here. I am happy to use this place. Maybe it would be better. I cant see where there was a place to send emojis or stickers

When I was younger I use to have a Penpal, this is great to connect with other people around the world. Sometimes there has been some creepy people but they are removed quickly.

It is a good and proven true website because i found new friends and this site also protects users by setting guidelines which is good because they have a disciplinary actions.
