What our members say

I love being able to connect and form genuine connections with anyone from anywhere! This site is the safest site I've used and feel most comfortable using compared to other pen pal sites. I do wish we got more than one contact credit at a time though! (I feel 2 would suffice)

I joined GPF in order to learn more about people and get a better idea of how I could interact with them better. I have found some excellent friends on here and am finding new ways to use this platform more efficiently.

I wanna meet snail mail penpals and someone I can speak French with since I’m learning the language but I am interested in having penpals from anywhere. Pictures and postcards will sometimes be sent from my end. Feel free to do the same.

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.
