I love that we can find people from many different countries and backgrounds here. The site pays a lot of attention to security, too. It's a friendly and diverse site, I like that.
It's a really awesome website, and i've made a lot of new penpal friends! It's so fun to use, but I put only 4 stars because they update all the time and I feel like there needs to be directions on how to work/understand all the new updates.
I enjoy writing letters by hand and getting to know people from other parts of the planet whom it would otherwise be practically impossible for me to meet. I’m glad this site exists.
I found 2 penfriends on this site. It's easy to navigate and I love that the site is not full with adds. Helps to use it even on my phone. The search function helps to pick a person to write to. The limit per day for non paying users is a bit annoying but I understand that globalpenfriends.com need a reason that you're joining.
A very good experience for speaking English with children of the same age, it makes you want to learn. Très bonne expérience pour parler en anglais avec des enfants du même âge, ça donne envie d'apprendre.
This website is really good. I like how it checks if every user is safe and I never met a fraud here.
It's a good Site to meet peaple from other countries and broaden your hirizones of thinking by getting to know different cultures.
I enjoy Global Penfriends. I continue to write to a retired senior lady with similar qualities, past times and hobbies. She is from Norway.
This penpalling website has helped me make safe, fun connections with people from all over the world that I wouldn't have met otherwise. Overall, a very good site!
