I think your website is very useful for meeting new people. The safety and privacy features definitely stand for a large part of my love for this website.

I used this site before and found some genuine friends. Hope I will find new friends on here again. Sometimes in life, you need good friends that you can chat with.

Its very easy to navigate things, ensures safety when verifying profiles, no paywall, and i can find people of my age without being called out for being too young!

It's great that you can choose who can contact you. Especially as a woman it's reassuring to know that not any creepy person can contact you. So far I've only had good experiences with this website and met some very good friends through it.

I wish I could delete the conversations of people who don't respond anymore (rather than waiting until the system says they are stale) but other than that its a good site.

I made many new friends through this site. It's always exciting to open my mailbox and find a letter or postcard there from a Penpal.

I live in a flat landlocked country with long winters and short summers. It can be very beautiful here, but I love the sea. The site expands my world when my pen pals tell me about their countries. It's not like watching National Geographic. I feel like I've been to the mountains or the sea.
