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.

Over the years I’ve used Global Penpals to find me new friends to connect with from around the world and learn about where they live, and forming lasting friendships…. I still keep in touch with one from 2015! When I was at school in the 1970s I used to have over half a dozen penpals (sourced from a specialist newsletter through the post) from all over the world. Having lost touch with them over the years I wanted to rekindle an enjoyable hobby.

It's an amazing experience. I look forward to reading my messages after a long day at school or responsibilities at home. Everyone is so nice, they LIKE learning about different cultures, and this is why I love it :)
