Super cool and helpful website, only a few complaints, one being how you basically have to get the subscription. You can’t do much without the subscription because you have to wait forever.

I found global pen friends a year ago and I am truly shocked on how many people have the same interest as me! Writing to them makes me feel seen!

I've been on this platform for over a year. I like to communicate and get to know people from different parts of the world... You never know who might text you tomorrow or who you'll make friends with. It really broadens your horizons. It's a great way to see the wider world even from home.

I really like it, but sometime is really annoying the premium features. The rest, everything is good. Thanks

I have just begun my Global Penfriend journey but have so enjoyed the experience and have happily started more than a few awesome penfriendships. I so look forward to receiving happy mail and so enjoy getting to know other ladies around the world, and also love writing back to each and every one of them. It has been a great experience!

If you want to meet new people and expand your circle of friends, this website is the perfect place! I have connected with individuals from different countries and learned about their cultures. It has definitely given me fresh perspectives and helped me build lasting bonds with people from diverse backgrounds.
