It's another way to meet people and, if you're lucky, you can make friends, maybe meet someone you trust and form a great bond and maybe you'll write to each other for a long time. For this reason alone it is worth entering this world of ink and paper.

It's cool! Connecting with people made easy. I joined because I wanted to talk to people around the world via paper. It's more personal that way.

I love this site because it's so simple to use and to find people to connect with. The profiles are easy to fill in and help you find good matches for penpals, and the free version works very well considering it is free! I can't comment on the paid version as I don't have it, but I think the benefits would be well worth it!

I met my best friend on this app! We’ve been friends for about 2-3 years now. Be careful about who you write and don’t share personal information until trust is established.

I've been using Global Penfriends for 4 years and it's great! It's one of the few penpal sites that is safe for teens to use. That's very important.
