I wasn't sure about using Global Penfriends when I started but I also wasn't sure how I would find pen pals on my own. Despite being unsure, it has been great! I've got three or four pen pals that I am in regular contact with and I really appreciate the detailed profile you fill out to help connect you with people. Having the online messaging as initial contact is also worth it's weight in gold! Can't recommend this enough for connecting you to pen pals!

I like the site over all a lot but there are some things I dislike; It happened to me often that I deleted the message I was writing by mistake and the site doesnt save it at all so there is no way of getting it back. Plus you can't delete messages or edit them which is unfortunet. I also would like ro be able to react to individual messages. But besides that I do really enjoy it on here:)))
