This site is asking. I originally thought to try penpals to get my kids interested in it. I don't want expecting to meet my best friend on this site. And no we didn't know each other beforehand. Thank you Global Penpals!!!!
I've gotten to meet so many awesome people on here, with various interests, living in various places. it has helped expand my horizons!
It's a good place to make friends Here on Global penfriends And it can be free and safe to use if money is tight. Thank you
I can’t wait to get a penpal and I feel this is the safest website to do so!! I’m hopping to be able to make some long term friends :)
it's fine to join the site and know some new friends Thank you Global Penfriends for providing this website.
The website is quite easy to navigate. Would like a smaller character limit on profile though. Another nice feature would be an option to add ways to get into contact like email, discord, Instagram or whatsapp.
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.
its really good i've made lots of friends but there are lots of banner ads blocking the screen and a lot of important words like the post received I can barely see anything there. ik u need money and I don't mind them too much, but pls at least lemme see the words. and pls lemme see more than the last 5 active conversations maybe 10 for free? then for more u get premuim? I want to talk to all my friends :( pls fix those things then u get 5 stars. Everything for free.
Really good site for international friends but I wish I could contact more people. I love my friends that I meeted here.
individuals may be different in color, size, interest and taste but at the end of the day getting to know others is always a welcome feeling.
Start finding penpals and new friends from all around the world.
