This website has helped me make friends from all over the world, the rules they implement help ensure that everyone is safe!
Sadly have not connected with many people willing to share their life experiences or cultural differences
It's a really awesome website, and i've made a lot of new penpal friends! It's so fun to use, but I put only 4 stars because they update all the time and I feel like there needs to be directions on how to work/understand all the new updates.
This site is genuinely great for connecting with others throughout the world. I have not yet figured out how to update my profile to reflect more of who I am . Also, email conversation space is limited.
You can find friends here. It is the fact : ) And all depends only from you - your curiosity, your patient and persistence.
This site is so easy to use, even for someone like me who is very versed in technology. I am hoping to find friends from all walks of life to share cultural experiences among other things
Very fun. I haven’t had any problems, people are generally kind. I’m fairly busy and sometimes it takes me a little while to respond 🙂
Before joining Global PenFriends I had looked other options that are available. I love the checks that are done for safety. The cost is what i can afford. To put a price on friendship I understand there needs to be some but thankfully this site makes it affordable for lonely people to chat to other lonely people in the world.
It has everything in it, like searching some friend by language, age. it show what she loved too, perfect
Some of the best people I know have come from Global Penfriends. I have create lifelong friendships that have allowed me to meet and travel to new places.
Start finding penpals and new friends from all around the world.
