I was skeptical. However, after receiving my first letter, I know I contacted a real person, not an AI generated personality. I hope our relationship continues to grow.
I originally signed up for this site out of boredom, and I've never expected to make such good friends on here! All the people are very friendly, and they respond quickly most of the time! The only thing that kind of bothers me is that you can only see your last 5 active conversations, unless you pay. Other than that, it's amazing!
It's a good place to make friends Here on Global penfriends And it can be free and safe to use if money is tight. Thank you
This has been outright the most amazing experience of 2025, I'm in awe with the service and the lifelong friends I have met. Thank you for an amazing service.
I love the overall safety on here. I have never been contacted by anyone outside of my preferred age group and I feel like it is the perfect level of anonymity considering that we are all strangers who want to find a penpal. I do wish however to some day be able to stay in contact with more people without buying anything. I would also love to add more profile information regarding hobbies and other topics of interest. I would also love appreciate a language learning swap filter (for example, I want to learn Spanish and therefore would love to teach a person who knows Spanish my native tongue). Other than that I’m quite happy and I actually like how there is no app to directly contact people 24/7, since I feel like the whole point of having PenPals in 2026 is to not be available all the time and instead rewind for your new friends what happened over a span of time.
I've fouI've always wanted to make friends with people from other countries. I hadn't been in contact with my penpals for a few years, but I wanted to start again. I registered here hoping to find new penpals. I'm really glad that I was able to find some friends here. It's a really great site.nd so many pen pals here! What a great site!
it's nice to find friends from another country, especially through letters! (there's also other way if you dont want letters) it's so exciting
I've tried a few sites and social media groups for pen pals. Global Penfriends is by far the best for making legitimate connections! Of course there have been one or two who seemed like a good match and flaked, but I've made a few meaningful connections with lots of letters and communication. This is the only site I can recommend to others looking to match pen pal connections.
m truly excited to join Global Penfriend and connect with sincere people from around the world. I believe this platform offers a real chance to build meaningful friendships based on openness and shared values. I’m confident that through genuine conversations, I will find a true and lasting friend here
I can't really put into words how much i love receiving snail mail!!! As soon as i find one in my mailbox i have to stop everything, get in a cozy spot and read and lose myself in my letter - i even love pouring over the envelope, writing paper - everything about it!! Thanks for hosting this site where i can fulfill my snail mail dreams and make new friends around the world!! :) :)
