What our members say

I’ve been using this site for a few months now and I’ve really enjoyed it! I’ve met one of my best friends from Iran on this site and we still talk to each other, as well as one of my other friends from England! While I do use the free version of this website and there are certain limits that come with it, I’ve really enjoyed my time on the website and I will love to continue meeting people on it. I love making friends!

Clean, easy to use website that doesn't give me the creep factor because of the vetting process. I've already met several amazing people!

I have been writing paper letters to many countries since childhood. There is a large selection of friends, everything is clearly organized. There are photos, maps, information about new friends and much more. I have found great friends here and I am grateful for that. I like reading about their countries, their interests. I would recommend this application to everyone. It is a very friendly environment.

I get the impression that there are relatively a lot of good people. There are also people with whom I have been exchanging messages for a long time.
