i joined last year after seeing videos of people writing to their penpals and receiving pretty letters, and it was so easy and fun to set up an account. I think the system in which the website works is really cool too. And it's very safe and accessible, and i've met some of my closest friends on here which just opens so many doors, so i really really recommend!!

This site is really cool, and i've gotten to talk with so many people from all around the world! I even picked up another language with a help of a pen pal. The cute little gifts and stickers ive gotten are the best! I spend a lot of time on here, just talking with pen pals about life in general. 100% recommend to anyone who wants to try pen paling for the first time!

Lovely site to meet friends to exchange ideas and/or opinions. It also brings the world closer to home. I love travel and have natural curiousity about people and how/where they live.
