I met a friend I love very much here. I am happy to use this place. Maybe it would be better. I cant see where there was a place to send emojis or stickers

I wasn't sure about using Global Penfriends when I started but I also wasn't sure how I would find pen pals on my own. Despite being unsure, it has been great! I've got three or four pen pals that I am in regular contact with and I really appreciate the detailed profile you fill out to help connect you with people. Having the online messaging as initial contact is also worth it's weight in gold! Can't recommend this enough for connecting you to pen pals!
