I originally signed up for this site out of boredom, and I've never expected to make such good friends on here! All the people are very friendly, and they respond quickly most of the time! The only thing that kind of bothers me is that you can only see your last 5 active conversations, unless you pay. Other than that, it's amazing!

I am very satisfied with global penfriends. I am looking to find friends to write to and get to know and learn about new cultures and meet new and interesting people. I hope to get to know some really nice people and develop some great friendships. Learn about new places and make great connections and forever friends.

I really enjoyed it, but I would like it better if there was a possibility to give out a mail point other than my address. It might be only because I don't know how to do it, though, i'm pretty new to penpalling. But, as a new penpaller, I really like this website because you can meet people a little more easily and safely than on social media, and there isn't the wait time before recieving the letter as for other penpalling apps.
