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
Sadly have not connected with many people willing to share their life experiences or cultural differences
I have enjoyed meeting new people and hearing a bit about how people live in other parts of the world.
I have used this service for years and never had any trouble just wonderful service. Use it to make friends from around the world that last for years.
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.
