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.
I have meet very interesting people with gentle chats whenever it suits me and often educated myself on differing ways of life, hobbies and environments.
Have been using this site for about a year. Made several meaningful connections. I appreciate how easy it is to use the site as well as the security measures put in place to help establish trust between potential penpals.
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.
I've already found a really great friend just from using this, and I hope i'll meet even more! 10/10 <3
Good matches, the exchange of letters is good, only our snail mail systems take their time. It is what it is.
This site is a really calm and nice place to communicate with people around the world. Keep going my fellas :)
