What our members say

It is a great chance to meet new penpals. I am a member here since many years. It's also a good help to learn more about other countries.

I was skeptical. However, after receiving my first letter, I know I contacted a real person, not an AI generated personality. I hope our relationship continues to grow.

I like this platform and I signed up to get snail mail pals. It would be nice to have more features for free but overall a great website!

i like global penfriends because it really cares about safety like sharing contact details only if trust is build, that’s good but maybe it’s not necessary that people need to have at least two other two way chats to share contact details with a pen pal

My main reason for choosin GPF is that I want a penpal from the UK. There were initially several options from which to choose.

I have made some good connections, even with limited time available to participate. I have had a chance to learn more about places I may never get to visit. It reminds me that even with different cultures, there are common threads that bind us all together.
