This is a great site for finding pen pals. There is good security and advice, so I felt confident using it. I have met some really lovely people on here, and still no weirdos after over a year using it.

I got the best friends through GPF. It was an experience that connected me with people I might never have met otherwise. At first, I joined for the program itself, but what stayed with me was the friendships. We worked together, shared ideas, and supported each other in different tasks. Over time, those connections grew stronger, and I realized that GPF gave me more than just knowledge or activities. It gave me friends I can share my thoughts, people who understand me and stand by me. Looking back, I see that the most valuable outcome of GPF was not only the program but the lasting friendships I gained.😀

I have been writing paper letters to many countries since childhood. There is a large selection of friends, everything is clearly organized. There are photos, maps, information about new friends and much more. I have found great friends here and I am grateful for that. I like reading about their countries, their interests. I would recommend this application to everyone. It is a very friendly environment.
