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.

I found 2 penfriends on this site. It's easy to navigate and I love that the site is not full with adds. Helps to use it even on my phone. The search function helps to pick a person to write to. The limit per day for non paying users is a bit annoying but I understand that globalpenfriends.com need a reason that you're joining.

I love this website. It gave me the opportunity to see the other side of the world, and I've made many friends. I feel lucky to have opened this website in 2023. It gave me the opportunity to communicate with people from different cultural backgrounds and share things we both like. I feel incredibly happy about this. Perhaps this is some kind of destiny guiding me? In any case, I'm grateful for the existence of this website. 我很喜欢这个网站,它给我看见世界另一端的机会,我也认识了很多朋友,我感到幸运,在23年打开了这个网站,我有了和不同文化背景人们的交流机会,分享着我们共同喜欢的事物,我对此感到无比的幸福,这或许也是冥冥之中命运的指引吗?无论如何,感谢这个网站的存在
