It’s a really good website and super easy to finish people to talk to!But the only issue is the communication, you have to constantly refresh the website just to see if you’ve had a message or not and I get you can use emails but it’s still a pain to go on emails every single time I’m wondering if I’ve gotten a message back.And then it’s also very annoying when people don’t reply because their account has been inactive for a while but it doesn’t state that anywhere or suddenly alert the person in a better way that a have a message after a really long time.over all an amazing website and I’ve gained a lot of penpals from it!

I think it’s amazing for meeting friends from abroad, whether abroad means out of your state/province or out of your country! I’ve been using it for a while now and it’s been incredible. Thank you so much for allowing me to meet and make so many friends safely ❤️
