Is a really good site ive made a few friends and I like that there's safety limits before sharing personal info byt I wish it was in a app so that I dont have to keep searching for it and logging in again and again

The contacts I've got through GP have mostly been like-minded friendly people. Some have promised too much or even lied about themselves on their profile pages, but this is rather easy to detect quite soon. Thanks to GP, I have made solid, long-lasting friendships with several people from around the globe. The platform offered by GP is the best I've found on the internet.

Global penfriends has gotten me so many friends. I have met people in france, Australia, and places even farther. I have learned things about places I never knew. I have learned a little bit of france since then and I have met some amazing people on here, with the same interests as me. Very worth it!
