26yo Male from Oregon USA looking for new friends far and wide

Hello citizens of earth!

You can call me B! I have always wanted a penpal that I could bond with and share our cultures and learning experiences together! Iā€™m a pretty open book and good at making friends so please donā€™t be shy and reach out if youā€™d like to start making friends. Ideally Iā€™d like someone similar to my age but it isnā€™t necessary. I have a huge variety of hobbies and interests but Iā€™m big into dark stuff, art, music, horror movies, and a big video game guy too! I also volunteer with dogs and donate my hair.

Send me a DM or comment if youā€™d want to try to chat (:

34M - Rare Late 80's Model Human, Well-Maintained and Upgraded looking for people to chat with!

Hey folks! I've got something special for you today ā€“ a one-of-a-kind late 80's model male human, available for all your companionship needs!

This European import comes in a stunning white exterior, free from any visible damage. Trust me, it's a head-turner! Don't worry about missing out on essential features either ā€“ this guy still possesses all the original specs, with a couple of bonus upgrades. He underwent vision augmentation and dental alignment during his early years, ensuring an enhanced experience for both parties involved.

Though he may sound a little funny with his unique accent, fear not ā€“ he's perfectly understandable. And hey, if you're curious about his history, the registration documents are readily available upon request.

Now, let's talk performance. While he may not be in his prime, he's still in pretty decent shape and has managed to maintain his original dimensions over the years. You're in for a treat with his fuel efficiency ā€“ he runs like a champion on caffeine in the mornings, but expect a slightly slower pace in the evenings if his fuel source consists of fried cheese and beer.

To top it off, he's available right now and open to negotiations. Whether you're looking for a long-term commitment or a short-term chat adventure, this import model male human guarantees exceptional response time and aims to exceed your expectations (note: expectations not guaranteed to be exceeded).

So, what are you waiting for? Don't miss out on this rare opportunity to own a piece of late 80's human history! Give me a shout and let's make a deal. Serious inquiries only, please.

25/F-could this be the start of a wonderful friendship?

Hey all! Iā€™m located in the US/east coast. And Iā€™m looking for people who would be open to emailing for the next couple months before switching to snail mail. This is because I 1) donā€™t love the idea of giving my address to complete strangers and 2) unless something goes horribly wrong (I.e. approval does come from my university and/or the USDE) I will be spending two months this summer in Zanzibar and before that Iā€™ll be moving. So I really canā€™t effectively respond to mail (not that I couldnā€™t send a post card or something while away)

But all that aside, Iā€™m an occasional writer, frequent traveler and constant reader. I have two darling cats, and a husband (as well as no intention of having kids). Iā€™m slowly edging my way closer to being heavily tattooed instead of just having tattoos. Iā€™m in grad school for anthropology. Iā€™m learning Swahili (hence the Zanzibar trip). My French is terrible but I can understand it. And my Indonesian has fallen into disrepair, but I will probably start working on it once my Swahili is good. If I find the time I like to make lace (not bobbin bit shuttle). I love the beach, and old cities. I like cooking but mostly because I like good food. Iā€™ve been to 4/7 continents and 13 countries (I think I counted right).

I love stationary. I have a collection of postcards, some blank and ready to sent and others vintage with old writing. As well as a wax seal kit I never get to use. The email thing will be great but I genuinely want to make it to the place where we send snail mail. I have a slight preference for talking to other women in their 20s but am open so donā€™t let it prevent you from reaching out.

25/M/United States - Always been intrigued by the idea of having a penpal(s), figured it was time to give it a shot šŸ«”

Hey there!

So as mentioned in the title, Iā€™ve always been interesting in making and having penpals. Although my life can get busy from time to time, I figured it happens to others as well so there would be an understanding if replies arenā€™t instant lol.

I work from home so although some might think itā€™s chill (and sometimes it is), I am also the type of person that finds pride in my quality of work, especially in the position I find myself where I have colleagues who look up to me and my direction. All to say, I do my best to be engaged in any conversation I find myself in, but hope to have some understanding that replies may be sporadic occasionally.

Anyways, keeping it short and sweet, cause thatā€™s what chattingā€™s for lol. Hereā€™s a lil about me:

ā€¢ From the East Coast USA; Hispanic-American ā€¢ Athletic, fit, easy-going dude ā€¢ Hobbies include gaming, reading, listening to music, playing sports and going to the gym

Iā€™d like to say Iā€™m a good conversationalist, you donā€™t have to worry about it getting dry if we click šŸ¤ I (try to) keep things engaging, if weā€™re both interested

If anything sounds interesting, Iā€™ll see ya in my DMā€™s!

Hi there,

I am a 27 years old female who loves to write letters but I feel like I didn't get to do it as often as I'd like. I want to meet new people who I can send fun mail and letters.

I love watching tv shows while snacking. My favorite shows are The Office, Schitt Creek, Friends, New Girl. I also enjoy reading. My favorite genres are romance and thrillers.

I have a sweet tooth, I adore cookies, brownies, cupcakes and basically anything sweet. I do bake but I have a lot to learn because I do burn my cupcakes x)

I love exploring places, whether it is around my city or another country, we can exchange pictures and discuss our favorite places.

I will let my mysterious self unravel as we get to know each other, if you think we might be awesome penpals, shoot me a message :)

24/m/Germany looking for penpals from all over the world

Hey there!

I'm a 24 year old from Germany looking for a couple of penpals. I'm mostly interested in people with different cultural backgrounds as I always like to learn more about those, but it doesn't really matter where you're from exactly. As long as you're open minded and willing to talk about your life we should be good :)

Right now I live in one of the larger German cities, but was raised in a small village. My hobbies include reading, playing tennis, video games, going out with friends, TV shows and attending football matches. Currently I'm the DLC for Cyberpunk2077, but I keep coming back to Stardew Valley, Graveyard keeper and other games like this (please let me know if you've got similar suggestions!). As far as TV shows and books go, I'm currently watching Supernatural and the new Mr. and Mrs. Smith and reading a German novel about a police detective during the 1920/30s (it's actually 9 books, I'm at book 6). I also try to keep up with the political and social situation in Germany and abroad. I've got a degree in tax law / tax administration and work for the German equivalent of the American IRS, I don't know whether I'm going to stay there forever though. I'm going to go back to uni part-time in July. I also just had a lasik eye operation on Wednesday :D

You can also contact me if you're trying to learn German! After all, this also helps me with my English, haha. I'm fine with Reddid DMs, however we can also use social media if you want. I also love sending and recieving physical post cards, so if you're up for that don't hesitate to reach out to me! If you're interested just send me a message and tell me a little about yourself, I'm sure we're going to come up with some interesting topics!:)

34/NB/Belgium Looking for a Dutch-speaking penpal + offering a correspondence in French to who wants it

Hello! I will write this in English, but I'd like to find people to write to in Dutch:) My name is Alex, I'm 34 and non-binary (they/them in English, hen/hun in Dutch).

I've been learning Dutch for a while now. I'm not looking for a teacher, I'm looking for a friend, for someone to discover with who I am in Dutch ā€” as I believe our personality adapts to the language we speak somewhat. I'm looking for someone open-minded, queer or very queer friendly šŸŒˆ, over 21 years old to form a long-lasting conversation through either emails or snail mail.

I would describe myself as quiet, super sensitive, and (hopefully) kind and friendly. I live with my wife and her two kids, we have a dog and two black cats. I love reading, swimming, listening to podcasts (I love the human voice), learning stuff, skincare and makeup... I suffer from chronic pain (which means sometimes I won't be able to go to the postbox quickly), and while I have sorted out a lot of stuff, I'm still dealing with trauma and anxiety. You definitely can tell me everything, vent, complain, you'll never bore me.

I'm a firm believer in social justice, human rights, animal rights and gender equality. I would consider myself a feminist.

My mother tongue being French, you'll welcome to reach out if you want to write in French to someone, even if you don't speak Dutch yourself. Let's unveil the French you!:)

Have a lovely day everybody!

37F looking for emailing pals

Hi All. Iā€™m looking to make new friends via email. My address keeps changing but once I have something fixed, and maybe if weā€™re comfortable enough, Iā€™d love snail mail as well. Always exciting to get those.

A little bit about me. Iā€™m 37 years old. Introverted. Iā€™m a writer (not very well known lol). I love reading and may bombard you with book recommendations. Itā€™s not mandatory that you should be a reader but I sure as hell will have more to say if you are. Iā€™m a cat person and will stop to pet any and every cat as long as they let me. I keep houseplants and I cook decent South Asian food.

Just a little something to keep in mind: Iā€™m on the ASD spectrum. It doesnā€™t affect me so much as an adult now but sometimes my reactions to certain situations do come from some unusual places, as I like to call them haha.

Hope to hear soon!

33/M/United States - Open to All

Ahoy inter-strangers! Currently living in the US and am open to new friends from all over. I enjoy writing, typing, etc but I think its easiest to kick it off with DMs and go from there. Fun fact, I've never sent a post card before. I know, I know, pretty lame but it's gonna happen in the near future.

I work in the tech industry so I spend a lot of time around my computer but when I'm not on a computer I enjoy reading and watching movies/tv shows. Love horror flicks but also enjoy the classics. For books, i just finished reading Shōgun and plan to watch the new show as I hear it's awesome. I love history and learning about other cultures. So I spend a lot of time trying to learn new things like languages. Actively learning Korean and German but I'm awful, would love to language exchange if anyone is up to it.

I've got a Chugs (Chihuahua Pug) puppy who keeps me company after work so expect cute puppy pictures. Looking forward to getting to know you future friends.

32/M/Singapore

Greetings! I am from Singapore, a Southeast Asian nation, and I'm eager to establish meaningful connections with individuals who share a compatible cultural background.

Navigating through Singaporeā€™s urban terrain is a cherished pastime of mine. From unassuming shop houses to opulent structures and multi-storey buildings to serene gardens, I feel a sense of satisfaction and occasional nostalgia in unravelling the layers of history and appreciating the intricate layout, diverse land use, and everyday interactions that mould the landscape.

Beyond my ventures, I derive pleasure from wildlife and dinosaur documentaries as well as indulging in family-oriented movies, such as the captivating Monsterverse franchise.

Of course, conversation starters for cultural exchange need not revolve around major topics or common interests. Personal belongings can also spark of meaningful conversations. Whether they are family heirlooms or vintage items from the past, each one carries a unique story and holds special meaning for its owner.

Where interactions with people from abroad are concerned, my approach draws influences from post-colonial Southeast Asian statesmen such as Lee Kuan Yew and Dr. Mahathir. I seek a balance between engagement and maintaining the values and norms I was brought up with.

33/M

Hey! Been thinking about typing up a post for awhile and thought I'd give it a try.. Excited to have some fun conversations and hear your perspective on things.

I can't imagine talking about super deep things immediately but I'd love to talk music. I'm a big fan of Country. How about you, what's been in heavy rotation for you recently? Any good finds recently? Send me a playlist!

Also, after really getting out of the habit for the past ten years or so, I've started reading regularly again over the past year. Would love to hear some of your favorite books!

Or we could talk sports. Actually really got into the NCAA Women's Basketball Tournament this year. How about you, any favorite teams? What's the best game you've ever seen live? Or work. You like your job? Or school. Or food. Or beer. There's lots to talk about!

Reddit PMs or chats seem to be the easiest.

Hope to hear from you!

looking for penpals around the world!!!!!!!!

Hi I'm Spruce (any pronouns) and am new to this whole penpal thing, I love the act of letter writing and am trying to preserve the practice via starting a club but it hasn't done too well. I live in the PNW in the US and would love a penpal from anywhere really!!! I am planning on traveling to Spain in 2025 when I graduate, and would love to preserve my (limited) Spanish knowledge so a Spanish speaking penpal would be epic. I also plan to go to Italy as I have roots in Sicily and would love to visit my grandpa's plot of land which I think has just been collecting dust. I like pressing flowers and painting so my letters will look awesome, shoot me a message!

And if anyone is up for it would also like to swap art or goodies. (For an art exchange keep in mind that I'll mostly do graffiti style with bright colors. I don't expect to receive the same, but I just wouldn't like to receive any cutesy, horror, calligraphy or pastels/watercoloring.) I like the old school writing style of snail mail.

If you think our personalities match and we have some common interests, than let me know by comment or messagešŸ™‚

It gives me new energy and helps my adhd to relax haha šŸš²I regularly run, mountainbike, skate, play a game of soccer or hike with my dog :) šŸ¶ I also like to every now and then go for a swim, fitness or kayaking. I love the outdoors and like to be surrounded by nature while getting some fresh air and sometimes come across beautiful animals. šŸ¾šŸŒ³ āœˆļø I much enjoy to travel (both national and abroad) when I've the chance. Have been to some beautiful countries and there are a lot of countries on my bucket list! My biggest dream is to make a world journey sometime! will see...hahašŸ™ I like to explore other countries and cultures, landscapes, animals, architecture, amusement parks or other sightseeings. šŸŽ¢ šŸŽØ I also enjoy to do creative things sometimes, like drawing (mostly graffiti) and making things of different textures from like foam, stone or wood. Or just random creative stuff when ideas pop to my head haha šŸŽµšŸ„ For music I like many different genres: Mostly rock, metal and D&B, but also house, techno, dance, African Percussion and some songs of Hiphop, pop, Tex Mex, Jazz, Blues and Soundtracks. I also like to play drums. šŸŽ®šŸŽ² Every now and then to relax I like to game, play board games or watch movies/series. Mostly fantasy, action, sports, animation or thrillers.

First Time Penpal-ing, Tips??

This my first time, so can anyone give me tips. Should I write the first letter or receive? Do I talk to them a little before exchanging adresses?? What are some things to put in the first letter?? Just anything you can tell me.

Also If anyone wants to penpal, I'm F18 and from the US. I like to watch shows, movies, vtubers, YouTubers, play Stardew Valley and Sims 4, read (especially ya), write, and am trying to get back into crafting and drawing. I'm ok with anyone who don't share the same interests because I get interested in other peoples interest anyways.

Australian looking for overseas mates!

Hi everyone! I'm looking for snail mail pen pals from all over the world. I'm from Brisbane, married, with a child, and I enjoy reading (especially fantasy), audiobooks, cooking, gaming, and movies. I think it'd be awesome to exchange postcards and letters, and maybe even small packages with local snacks or souvenirs. It's a fun way to share a bit of our culture! If you're into the same things and want to connect through good old-fashioned mail, I'd love to hear from you! Let's start swapping stories and surprises from our corners of the globe.

26/F/England - Itā€™s Always Sunny in Naomiā€™s DMs ā˜€ļø

AYOOOO!

10 points if you can guess my favourite show šŸ¤£

Iā€™m Naomi and I essentially just love getting to know new people from any and every walk of life. I live in England with my partner and my pets (and my mother-in-law, happy happy fun time)!

I love all things horror, metal music and piercings, but I also love to do arts and crafts and cry at a cheesy romcom and my interior design style is almost entirely sunflowers and bumble bees šŸŒ»šŸ very much a mixed bag!

Will send unsolicited pictures of my pets and/or funko pops, and Iā€™m essentially a professional listener so Iā€™m great to have around ā¤ļø

My DMs are open to all ā˜€ļø

44M Metro Detroit - Seeking a new friend to bring some much-needed excitement

How's your Saturday going? Better than mine, I hope.

Like a lot of others, I am married with kids, and it isnā€™t quite all hunky-doryā€¦ I work from home (for years, well before the pandemic) and I am not always busy. That leaves a lot of time for me to be stuck in my own head, so I am looking for a friend who can provide a long-term distraction, both during and outside of work hours. I am not really looking to rant. I prefer chatting with someone creative, as maybe that will jumpstart a part of me that I feel I have lost.

About meā€¦ I love basketball and have season tickets to the local pro team (even though that causes me loads of heartache). I like exercise, long walks, food, TV, movies, and baseball on a nice day. I am often too sarcastic for my own good.

If you are in a similar situation or possibly share some interests, please feel free to reach out.

Hello everyone!

I'm a brazilian. Kinda lonely and introvert person, but thinking about exchanging Snail Mail and/or Email do with someone, hopefully becoming friend!

I love literature, philosophy, post-punk music, cats and football too. I'm actually trying to learn Spanish, so if you're interested too it would be great.

I would love to talk about anything and share experiences and tastes.

Some of my favorite bands: Radiohead, Slowdive, Beatles, Deceits and some brazilian ones.

Just dm me if you want to know a little bit more!

Peace šŸ‘‹

28F looking for this:

Hey there. I am 28 female. Here are some stuff about me: I am easy going. I love games and anime. I do walks and take pictures of what I see. I sometimes get busy and need someone who gets that. I am not scared to share selfies too, but you got to go first. I do have days where I am available all day so we can have good times if you're understanding.

Looking for someone to talk to who:

ā—Doesn't mind sharing selfies before we start talking.

ā—Doesn't mind that I do get busy sometimes.

ā—Who isn't sensitive about everything and everyone.

ā—Most importantly my age or older.

ā—Someone fun and easy going and can keep a conversation going.

If you are up for it send me a DM, if not move along šŸ™ƒ

F 43 Married šŸ³ļøā€šŸŒˆ Canadian šŸ‡ØšŸ‡¦ looking for snail mail friends

Hey there, Iā€™m 43 Canadian and looking for some snail mail friends that are interested in being long term pen pals. I am gay and married and only looking for friends.

Iā€™m interested in photography, true crime, podcasts, tv shows, food, crafting, nature, movies, video games, napping, music, my dog, and writing. I have collected a lot of stationary and am looking to make use of it!

I currently have a lot of time on my hands due to several chronic illnesses, so I enjoy spending time and putting effort into my correspondence.

We can talk about anything, we can exchange letters, cards, postcards, stickersā€¦whatever.

If you would be interested in exchanging snail mail please feel free to send me a chat.

22f from Ohio!

Hello I am a 22f from Ohio USA. I'm new to this pen pal thing but it seems like something I would like to do and seems like a cool way to make friends. so a bit about me I guess. I love cats (literally love them so much I have 4), I also have a huge passion for crochet and yarn and other fiber arts, i have been crocheting constantly since I was 15 but ive known how to crochet since i was 8. I also love to go thrifting and antiquing at my local shops and going to flea markets when they are in my town. i also love tattoos and piercings as i have several myself. I work at a funeral home so that's cool I guess I hope to make new friends here šŸ–¤
