What our members say

Great website, loves the way it can connect people while simultaneously disconnecting people from the internet and doom scrolling. I think old timey letters should be brought back and this is the perfect way to do it.

I feel safe when contacting others on this website, and connected with other users that also had similar tastes that are lesser known by most people online in the general public. This website is great at letting people describe themselves and their culture. So far I have met people with different interesting views and way of life, across the globe. Great website, 100%
