What our members say

I really like the idea of this ,like bringing back penpals. It's a really unique experience and I like the fact that each profile goes under verification to ensure more safety among the users. The only thing that I'd say was not necessary is the fact that profiles are restricted and you have to pay.Even so, it's a fun experience

I have made so many new friends here. Some online only (Epals) and some snail mail friends. I've sent and received some wonderful letters and extra little gifts. I feel safe using the site and I trust them to spot and remove false profiles. 10/10 would recommend.
