I joined Global Penfriends to meet new friends worldwide, exchange stories, and learn about different cultures. I’m excited about postcards, meaningful conversations, and maybe even swapping small gifts. Let’s connect and share a little bit of our worlds with each other ✉️

When I was younger I use to have a Penpal, this is great to connect with other people around the world. Sometimes there has been some creepy people but they are removed quickly.

I met a friend I love very much here. I am happy to use this place. Maybe it would be better. I cant see where there was a place to send emojis or stickers
