I think it’s functional! I havent sent any real post yet tbh… but I think it really does its job, the only bad thing is that a lot of the good options are paid and it’s a bit hard to connect with people for a lot of days because of the one week rule, but I understand is for safety! I love this website :)

If you want to meet new people and expand your circle of friends, this website is the perfect place! I have connected with individuals from different countries and learned about their cultures. It has definitely given me fresh perspectives and helped me build lasting bonds with people from diverse backgrounds.

This website help me to find most of my penpals! So good. I tried another website, but search is doesn't work well, and I couldn't limit who could write to me, and it was terrible, I deleted the account right away. But here on Global Penfriends, I haven't noticed anything like that for more than six months of use! Thank you so much!
