This site is really cool, and i've gotten to talk with so many people from all around the world! I even picked up another language with a help of a pen pal. The cute little gifts and stickers ive gotten are the best!

Great website with lots of features, but you need to pay for extra things which such as seeing who viewed you seeing when they where last on the website messaging a certain amount of times.
