I've had, overall, so far a good experience of connecting with people who are serious about becoming penfriends. Global penfriends seems to have the edge on this compared to other online sites.

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.
