What our members say

I really love this website, it helped me find a new pen pal who I send letters to and swap sweets from our countries with!

It's a really easy website to navigate. The layout is pretty simple and easy to understand. As well as it is a very secure and I feel safe using it. I don't typically trust penpal websites easily but since people are actually lookin through profiles and have a system for when you're making new friends you understand online safety over personal info I feel safe on it. I also got to meet people both different from me and are similar to me in some ways I enjoy.

This is a special way to search for new people, to have new friends or, as I did, to learn or improve a language.

I can completely relate to how momentous this is. Finding a friend from another country has been a dream of mine since childhood, and seeing that dream finally come true feels so fulfilling and special. It’s amazing to share that connection across distances!
