Learn about new places and people. Good old fashioned mail. No quick chatting that ends too soon. Learn of historical places and people. Current affairs explained by friends in depth from different perspective from different countries.

It's a nice platform to find friends around the world. It's also safe since it doesn't allow us to give social medias or other personal details

This program is giving me the opportunity to have contact with some pen pals that I wouldn’t have if I wasn’t using Global Penfriends.

I have been able to make atleast one foreign friend and she is amazing. I love the safety efforts put into making sure that everyone using the website is safe and that I am able to build an actual trusting foundation before my penpal and I take communication further than just the website.

This site is really cool, and i've gotten to talk with so many people from all around the world! I even picked up another language with a help of a pen pal. The cute little gifts and stickers ive gotten are the best! I spend a lot of time on here, just talking with pen pals about life in general. 100% recommend to anyone who wants to try pen paling for the first time!
