This program is giving me the opportunity to have contact with some pen pals that I wouldn’t have if I wasn’t using Global Penfriends.

its really good i've made lots of friends but there are lots of banner ads blocking the screen and a lot of important words like the post received I can barely see anything there. ik u need money and I don't mind them too much, but pls at least lemme see the words. and pls lemme see more than the last 5 active conversations maybe 10 for free? then for more u get premuim? I want to talk to all my friends :( pls fix those things then u get 5 stars. Everything for free.

I started using GP for fun but then I found some real pen pals and we write and talk to each other regularly.

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

I am someone who is not the best at connecting with people, but this website has helped me make friends!

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.
