A penpal is a person with whom one becomes friendly by exchanging letters, especially someone in a foreign country whom one has never met.

With a penpal, you open to someone that you don't know, and you learn to know him for who he is. It is a communication from soul to soul, stripped of all the superficial.

We are a community where people come together to exchange, to write to each other. On Penpal-online, we put an emphasis on respect and tolerance. It is not about all having the same opinions, but on the contrary to meet people with different ones and to listen to their stories, to keep an open mind on their way of thinking. That is how we grow, and that is how we improve as an individual.
