I started using Global Pen Friends in 2020, then took a break for some time. Now I am back, and I’m really happy I returned. The site is warm and friendly, and I have met kind people and made real friendships. It feels nice to connect with others from different countries and share stories.

I like the site over all a lot but there are some things I dislike; It happened to me often that I deleted the message I was writing by mistake and the site doesnt save it at all so there is no way of getting it back. Plus you can't delete messages or edit them which is unfortunet. I also would like ro be able to react to individual messages. But besides that I do really enjoy it on here:)))
