I've already found a really great friend just from using this, and I hope i'll meet even more! 10/10 <3
I think is a great way to learn more and meet new people but I do wish it was an app. I also with it was easier to do things without credits. The credits really frustrate me a little since I come a family that isn’t big on the idea of contacting strangers lol
It allows you to meet so many people from so many different places. It is by far the best website I have used to connect with people accross the world. Very safe, and very easy to use. I love it.
I have enjoyed meeting new people and hearing a bit about how people live in other parts of the world.
I really like Global Penfriends because I've gotten to meet so many interesting people, who i wouldn't have met otherwise. It's been a great experience. it's given me an opportunity to practice my typing as well. I really like Global Penfriends and would definitely recommend to a friend
I really like the idea of a penfriend site! 😊 It is a great way for people from different places to meet, communicate, share experiences, and learn about different cultures. The site can help users build genuine friendships through messages!
I managed to find penpals and global friends! Its actually a really small world because sometimes your penpal knows someone in your life, like what happened to me, where i met my penpals friend even though we were in two different countries, pretty cool!
This website is really good. I like how it checks if every user is safe and I never met a fraud here.
I love this website & its purpose! I have made many very sweet penpals here and enjoy the hobby. Meeting people, even without any premium memberships is super easy. Connecting over other Apps later on once one got to know each other should also be possible, to stay in contact better. (getting notifications from their messages, reacting to posts/ stories) Maybe a great alternative to add would be people being able to upload posts to their own profile to show their personality a little better.
It has everything in it, like searching some friend by language, age. it show what she loved too, perfect
