A few years ago I signed up to this site and I immediately saw it's value. Since then, I've made pretty long lasting friendships and I've been able to send letters to everywhere in the world!

I found a special friend on this site. We have been writing each other over three years already. I have visited her once and will be doing so again soon. Such a fun way to learn about other countries and cultures.

possible improvements: allow for more conversations at a time, maybe include an LGBT tag to allow for people in the community to more easily find and connect with others within the community
