This is a fun cite to connect with others from around the world. It can be a tad overwhelming, so you need to be organized and remember what you wrote to several different people. I wish there was a way to keep track of interactions and maybe there is if you pay the membership fees.

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 met a few good friends from different countries, I met a few of them when I went to overseas. it's a good way to learn another culture and broader our knowledge. I wish I could put the picture when I told them my story.

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.
