I joined GPF in order to learn more about people and get a better idea of how I could interact with them better. I have found some excellent friends on here and am finding new ways to use this platform more efficiently.

I meet good pen-pals here. I feel happy when I receive letters. Now we exchange culture. That's great that somewhere has a person who have same thoughts with you. Thank you!

It is a great chance to meet new penpals. I am a member here since many years. It's also a good help to learn more about other countries.

I wanna meet snail mail penpals and someone I can speak French with since I’m learning the language but I am interested in having penpals from anywhere. Pictures and postcards will sometimes be sent from my end. Feel free to do the same.

Why using the Internet and forgetting about the best opportunity it provides us with, a chance to share and unite, find a penfriend. Here, on this website, it is easy to do =)
