I have met many nice people and have enjoyed corresponding with them. It is a good way to meet people from other countries and learn about their lives and customs.

I really love this website as it provides filters and has a lot of functions to find people with similar interests! There is a smile function that can help if you are a bit shy.

This site is so amazing! It has honestly helped me learn so much about the world from others perspectives and make new friends! The site is incredibly safe, easy to navigate, and it really helps that the staff and other pen friends are so kind! Thank you so much Global Penfriends for introducing me to a side of life I otherwise would've never known!

It's really great I just wish free members could edit your profile more than 3 times a month. Other than that it's really great
