I love it cos, Ive met amazing people on this site and still meeting more!!, i love learning about new music, theatre productions, authors and their books, culture etc!, when i joined penfriends i was abit skepticak at first, but then i got the hang of it and loved it!, i go on it like (NEARLY) everyday!!,
I enjoy writing letters by hand and getting to know people from other parts of the planet whom it would otherwise be practically impossible for me to meet. I’m glad this site exists.
It is a great site to connect with people from across the globe, and does an excellent job ensuring the safety and ease of everyone involved!
This site is so easy to use, even for someone like me who is very versed in technology. I am hoping to find friends from all walks of life to share cultural experiences among other things
very easy to use and you meet such friendly and wonderful people, i have had a great experience so far
I think is a great way to learn more and meet new people but I do wish it was an app. I also with it was easier to do things without credits. The credits really frustrate me a little since I come a family that isn’t big on the idea of contacting strangers lol
I love that we can find people from many different countries and backgrounds here. The site pays a lot of attention to security, too. It's a friendly and diverse site, I like that.
A very good experience for speaking English with children of the same age, it makes you want to learn. Très bonne expérience pour parler en anglais avec des enfants du même âge, ça donne envie d'apprendre.
The website is safe and has good safeguarding features. It would be better if it would allow to upload more pictures and if it would let us choose the place of the keepsake.
