Is a great place for ppl to meet new ppl habd make new friends and share interests and hobbies with one another
It's a really awesome website, and i've made a lot of new penpal friends! It's so fun to use, but I put only 4 stars because they update all the time and I feel like there needs to be directions on how to work/understand all the new updates.
Over the years I’ve used Global Penpals to find me new friends to connect with from around the world and learn about where they live, and forming lasting friendships…. I still keep in touch with one from 2015! When I was at school in the 1970s I used to have over half a dozen penpals (sourced from a specialist newsletter through the post) from all over the world. Having lost touch with them over the years I wanted to rekindle an enjoyable hobby.
This site is genuinely great for connecting with others throughout the world. I have not yet figured out how to update my profile to reflect more of who I am . Also, email conversation space is limited.
It's a safe way to talk to more people, it takes precautions to protect your data, and it's very interactive and fun—I love it!
Exchange from all over thé world i found it interesting to have différent points of views from around thé world.
I love being able to have a safe website where I can find new friends to write to! It's so fun and I appreciate that it is safe as well.
Start finding penpals and new friends from all around the world.
