It's another way to meet people and, if you're lucky, you can make friends, maybe meet someone you trust and form a great bond and maybe you'll write to each other for a long time. For this reason alone it is worth entering this world of ink and paper.

I am very happy to have so many nice penpals I can connect with, and learn from. Penfriends has given me opportunities for sharing my interests and experiences, but it has also been a way to practice my language skills. Thank you!
