What our members say

I have been corresponding with the same person weekly for the last few months. I don't socialize much in person anymore so this is a nice way to be able to interact

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 joined last year after seeing videos of people writing to their penpals and receiving pretty letters, and it was so easy and fun to set up an account. I think the system in which the website works is really cool too. And it's very safe and accessible, and i've met some of my closest friends on here which just opens so many doors, so i really really recommend!!

I wish I could delete the conversations of people who don't respond anymore (rather than waiting until the system says they are stale) but other than that its a good site.

I met a few good friends from different countries, I met a few of them when I went to overseas. it's a good way to learn another culture and broader our knowledge. I wish I could put the picture when I told them my story.
