What our members say

I really enjoyed it, but I would like it better if there was a possibility to give out a mail point other than my address. It might be only because I don't know how to do it, though, i'm pretty new to penpalling. But, as a new penpaller, I really like this website because you can meet people a little more easily and safely than on social media, and there isn't the wait time before recieving the letter as for other penpalling apps.

I had signed up a while back but never got around to looking for a penpal. I have been so excited at the thought of making new friends in another state or even a whole other country. I cant wait to see what lies ahead.. Have fun everyone

Being able to communicate without paying. Simply making friends without them expecting something in return.

This is a fun cite to connect with others from around the world. It can be a tad overwhelming, so you need to be organized and remember what you wrote to several different people. I wish there was a way to keep track of interactions and maybe there is if you pay the membership fees.
