Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. Joining is the best thing I ever did. I would highly recommend to anyone wishing to find a penal
I love everything about this site but I wish it was an app. most of it is easy to use but the text feature makes it a little hard to use.
A great site with wonderful people, sometimes you need something to answer, but the virtual smile is just great and shows others that you have seen your profile. Eine tolle Seite mit wundervollen Leuten, manchmal braucht man etwas mit antworten, aber das virtuelle Lächeln ist einfach super und zeigt, den anderen, das man sein Profil gesehen hat.
Love that worldwide penpals sign up for this site. I have not had a chance to engage recently but thankful its still here for me to use as time permits
I've had a great experience so far, I've found some lovely penpals around the world and I hope to find more.
I made friends from different parts of the world, found some interested in snail mail, even mail art! I'll recommend a 100 percent !
Good site. Found good friends. Very secure and strict rules. Sometimes too much strickt.
Recommended, except that a friend I write letters to has been blocked, and now I don't know her last name to send the letter to, and I really liked her!
Thank you for providing a service. It really helps create and maintain relationships with other individuals.
I love the overall safety on here. I have never been contacted by anyone outside of my preferred age group and I feel like it is the perfect level of anonymity considering that we are all strangers who want to find a penpal. I do wish however to some day be able to stay in contact with more people without buying anything. I would also love to add more profile information regarding hobbies and other topics of interest. I would also love appreciate a language learning swap filter (for example, I want to learn Spanish and therefore would love to teach a person who knows Spanish my native tongue). Other than that I’m quite happy and I actually like how there is no app to directly contact people 24/7, since I feel like the whole point of having PenPals in 2026 is to not be available all the time and instead rewind for your new friends what happened over a span of time.
Start finding penpals and new friends from all around the world.
