This program is giving me the opportunity to have contact with some pen pals that I wouldn’t have if I wasn’t using Global Penfriends.

I found the most wonderful penpals here! I can only recommend it. It might take some time until you find the people who match but it's the same in real life isn't it?

It's a nice platform to find friends around the world. It's also safe since it doesn't allow us to give social medias or other personal details

I really enjoyed it, but I would like it better if there was a possibility to give out a mail point other than my address. It might be only because I don't know how to do it, though, i'm pretty new to penpalling. But, as a new penpaller, I really like this website because you can meet people a little more easily and safely than on social media, and there isn't the wait time before recieving the letter as for other penpalling apps.

AMAZING site, it allowed me to meet new people and discover a new hobby which is writing letters and penpaling in general, the feeling of getting a message with gifts, bracelets, photos from a person from the other side of the world is just magical.
