I wasn't sure what to expect when I first joined but I've made several wonderful friends & it's been a great experience so far.
It allows you to meet so many people from so many different places. It is by far the best website I have used to connect with people accross the world. Very safe, and very easy to use. I love it.
Very much enjoy the opportunity to keep in touch with like minded individuals around the world. This presents as a safe and welcoming environment.
I found 2 penfriends on this site. It's easy to navigate and I love that the site is not full with adds. Helps to use it even on my phone. The search function helps to pick a person to write to. The limit per day for non paying users is a bit annoying but I understand that globalpenfriends.com need a reason that you're joining.
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.
i have just started, enjoying it so far and meeting new people, hope to build new friendships.......
Lovely way to connect with new friends all over the world. I look forward to receiving messages from my friends.
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.
Mi experiencia es genial en Global Penfriends! He hecho amigos de todas partes, y es tan respetuoso todo, diez de puntaje 🫶🏽
