I really enjoyed it, but I would like it better if there was a possibility to give out a mail point other than my address. It might be only because I don't know how to do it, though, i'm pretty new to penpalling. But, as a new penpaller, I really like this website because you can meet people a little more easily and safely than on social media, and there isn't the wait time before recieving the letter as for other penpalling apps.

the contact process is better, the report process not so, suspicious characters while prevalent, are less

Global pen friends is a great opportunity to make new friens from all over the world and i think it is pretty save too because of the rules of sharing informations

I originally signed up for this site out of boredom, and I've never expected to make such good friends on here! All the people are very friendly, and they respond quickly most of the time! The only thing that kind of bothers me is that you can only see your last 5 active conversations, unless you pay. Other than that, it's amazing!
