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.

I can't really put into words how much i love receiving snail mail!!! As soon as i find one in my mailbox i have to stop everything, get in a cozy spot and read and lose myself in my letter - i even love pouring over the envelope, writing paper - everything about it!! Thanks for hosting this site where i can fulfill my snail mail dreams and make new friends around the world!! :) :)
