I have found new friends here and absolutely love getting to know them and learning about the places they live and sending and recieving gifts with them. I've found lifelong friends.
I have enjoyed meeting new people and hearing a bit about how people live in other parts of the world.
Id recommend this site for anyone wanting to make friends all over the world and for introverted people like myself

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 found a great friend, I'm glad to be a member. Thank you all for this Chanel, that like us with great people.
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!
Love this site. Found great friendships on here. This site feels very safe to use. I enjoy connecting to people with similar interests as myself.
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.
Nice site , good to make new friends across the world and learn their culture and language.
Start finding penpals and new friends from all around the world.
