I started using Global Pen Friends in 2020, then took a break for some time. Now I am back, and I’m really happy I returned. The site is warm and friendly, and I have met kind people and made real friendships. It feels nice to connect with others from different countries and share stories.

It’s good for making friends across the world. It gives you connections that can lead to something more like possibly travailing.

I was skeptical. However, after receiving my first letter, I know I contacted a real person, not an AI generated personality. I hope our relationship continues to grow.

Global Penfriends is such a warm and welcoming space. It makes it easy to connect with kind, creative people from all over the world, and there’s something really special about slowing down and building friendships through letters. Perfect for anyone who loves journaling, stationery, and meaningful connections.
