This site is genuinely great for connecting with others throughout the world. I have not yet figured out how to update my profile to reflect more of who I am . Also, email conversation space is limited.
I managed to find penpals and global friends! Its actually a really small world because sometimes your penpal knows someone in your life, like what happened to me, where i met my penpals friend even though we were in two different countries, pretty cool!
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.
I've already found a really great friend just from using this, and I hope i'll meet even more! 10/10 <3
Mi experiencia es genial en Global Penfriends! He hecho amigos de todas partes, y es tan respetuoso todo, diez de puntaje 🫶🏽
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.
I think is a great way to learn more and meet new people but I do wish it was an app. I also with it was easier to do things without credits. The credits really frustrate me a little since I come a family that isn’t big on the idea of contacting strangers lol
It's really great I just wish free members could edit your profile more than 3 times a month. Other than that it's really great
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.
It's a safe way to talk to more people, it takes precautions to protect your data, and it's very interactive and fun—I love it!
