I love the overall safety on here. I have never been contacted by anyone outside of my preferred age group and I feel like it is the perfect level of anonymity considering that we are all strangers who want to find a penpal. I do wish however to some day be able to stay in contact with more people without buying anything. I would also love to add more profile information regarding hobbies and other topics of interest. I would also love appreciate a language learning swap filter (for example, I want to learn Spanish and therefore would love to teach a person who knows Spanish my native tongue). Other than that I’m quite happy and I actually like how there is no app to directly contact people 24/7, since I feel like the whole point of having PenPals in 2026 is to not be available all the time and instead rewind for your new friends what happened over a span of time.
I recommend this site my friends. This is very Genuine site. And no worries about personal detail
Hi my name is Nicole I'm from the United States West Palm beach fl. I am half Italian from my mom's side and I would love to speak Italian fluent. I know a little bit but not enough to actually speak the language
I'm so grateful to whoever created this site because it's fantastic. They've connected me with so many people, including some I've met during my travels. Going back to places where we used to take the time is truly wonderful, and rediscovering the joy of having real things to talk about. Je remercie vraiment ceux qui ont créé ce site parce qu’il est super. Ils m’ont mis en correspondance avec plusieurs personnes et même certaines que j’ai pu rencontrer pendant mes voyages. Revenir autant où on prenait le temps et vraiment génial et redécouvrir le fait d’avoir vraiment des choses à se dire!
I love everything about this site but I wish it was an app. most of it is easy to use but the text feature makes it a little hard to use.
Love that worldwide penpals sign up for this site. I have not had a chance to engage recently but thankful its still here for me to use as time permits
Great site to meet new people who have serious intention of writing to each other for a long time period.
Being able to communicate without paying. Simply making friends without them expecting something in return.
I have met three good friends on this site. I recommend it to everyone who wants to make friends and learn new things.
So far I have made a few friends and everything is going well. I don't have any complaints and haven't had any problems.
