What our members say

I really enjoy that Global Pen-friends is sending me suggestions for new Pen-pals. The ones I have been writing to are not always reliable and sometimes do not write for a long time, even though we get along very well. Thank you for hosting this site, it has been a lot of fun.

I love this website & its purpose! I have made many very sweet penpals here and enjoy the hobby. Meeting people, even without any premium memberships is super easy. Connecting over other Apps later on once one got to know each other should also be possible, to stay in contact better. (getting notifications from their messages, reacting to posts/ stories) Maybe a great alternative to add would be people being able to upload posts to their own profile to show their personality a little better.

It's a decent site but not everyone writes regularly, although it's important to find a good fit with people

Global Penfriends has helped me find lovely penfriends with whom I have been in contact for many years. I've even met one of them in person. I recommend giving it a try.
