I met my friend in Global Penfriends. We are talking for almost 5 months now. I learned so much about her culture, and made connections beyond the border of my country. Even if we are separated by great distance, I can say she is my bestie.

I like how the website is structured but I wish you could see when the last time people were active. I keep smiling people and I usually get responses like they haven't been active for a while. Id love this to become an app so I can get notifications, plus logging in everytime I open the site is kind of annoying. But I've had lots of success with gaining pen pals!! Love this site it's my go to for snail mail
