What our members say

I love everything about this site but I wish it was an app. most of it is easy to use but the text feature makes it a little hard to use.

I am very satisfied with global penfriends. I am looking to find friends to write to and get to know and learn about new cultures and meet new and interesting people. I hope to get to know some really nice people and develop some great friendships. Learn about new places and make great connections and forever friends.

A reliable site that is straightforward and easy to use. It clearly states that it is not a romance or dating site which I definitely appreciate.

It's a great site I do wish I could talk to as many people as I want instead of just five but otherwise it is fantastic!!!

I found the most wonderful penpals here! I can only recommend it. It might take some time until you find the people who match but it's the same in real life isn't it?
