I wanted to start writing to people all over the world, but I had no idea how to do it safely. GlobalPenFriends is what I found to be the most reliable site so far when finding people that are real. But it has its quirks, the site can be kinda laggy, but to be fair I use this solely on my phone. I’m sure it runs a lot more efficiently on a computer or laptop. Of course there are some accounts still on here that are questionable, but far less when compared to other platforms. I haven’t come across any “creepy” people. I recommend it for sure! I have gained a few penpals whom I write to and it’s been a lovely experience so far.

It's a nice platform to find friends around the world. It's also safe since it doesn't allow us to give social medias or other personal details

I think they are amazing by letting you connect with people all over the world. I like to connect with different cultures and learning how they live they think and also to give other people a chance to see how other cultures live and how we live our every day lives.
