I have thoroughly enjoyed this website because I’ve made a few friendships that I hope to continue for a long time. I love that there are security features in place to keep everyone safe and that trust has to be built first before personal information is shared.

My daughter wanted to practice her English with other children her age. She found several pen pals. Ma fille voulait échanger en anglais avec d'autres enfants de son âge. Elle a trouvé plusieurs correspondants .

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.
