I love the site and how it has personal approval of profiles, I have built friendship and I also have undesired profiles remove without me stepping in. thanks for such safe and wonderful site.
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!
A very good experience for speaking English with children of the same age, it makes you want to learn. Très bonne expérience pour parler en anglais avec des enfants du même âge, ça donne envie d'apprendre.
An easy to use, simple & friendly site 😊 I’ve made friends with people I would never have met otherwise. One of whom will be a friend for life!
Was looking to get back to writing and corresponding. Loved having a penpal as a kid and was happy to find one within 1 week of signing up. The website needs some updating and a more pleasant UX/UI experience but its a great service.
It is a great site to connect with people from across the globe, and does an excellent job ensuring the safety and ease of everyone involved!
Great to hear from someone from another country and ask question on where to go and see in your travels.
I enjoy writing letters by hand and getting to know people from other parts of the planet whom it would otherwise be practically impossible for me to meet. I’m glad this site exists.
I love that we can find people from many different countries and backgrounds here. The site pays a lot of attention to security, too. It's a friendly and diverse site, I like that.
This penpalling website has helped me make safe, fun connections with people from all over the world that I wouldn't have met otherwise. Overall, a very good site!
