Global Penfriends is good. We can connect with people and start writing and this can help to build connection slowly

It’s nice to see so many different people in one place. It can be kind of difficult to get a chain of letters going, but everyone is super nice and the site has great safety features!

This website allowed me to learn from the people I engaged with; knowing that people come from different culture and backgrounds. The struggles of everyday life and how they are coping with it made me feel I am not alone. Just being there, writing to each other makes one feel that even the smallest things matters….knowing you have a mail.;)

100 % happy about this app. I found few very good and dear friends and step by continuously every day. I would recommend it to everyone who wants to make new friends, but in a slow way with no pressure.
