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

the site is okay, tho it tends to sign me out every time I exit the browser even if it's for 2 minutes

I'm so grateful to whoever created this site because it's fantastic. They've connected me with so many people, including some I've met during my travels. Going back to places where we used to take the time is truly wonderful, and rediscovering the joy of having real things to talk about. Je remercie vraiment ceux qui ont créé ce site parce qu’il est super. Ils m’ont mis en correspondance avec plusieurs personnes et même certaines que j’ai pu rencontrer pendant mes voyages. Revenir autant où on prenait le temps et vraiment génial et redécouvrir le fait d’avoir vraiment des choses à se dire!

Is a really good site ive made a few friends and I like that there's safety limits before sharing personal info byt I wish it was in a app so that I dont have to keep searching for it and logging in again and again

It's been a really good way to meet people in other parts of the world. I have met quite a few on here, but most of my contacts have been genuine.

Global penfriends has gotten me so many friends. I have met people in france, Australia, and places even farther. I have learned things about places I never knew. I have learned a little bit of france since then and I have met some amazing people on here, with the same interests as me. Very worth it!
