Tip 1: Write a clear profile
Share interests, languages, and why you want pen pals. Vague profiles get vague matches.
Tip 2: Prefer fit over volume
Message fewer people with stronger overlap. Slow social rewards depth.
Tip 3: Send a replyable first letter
Include one personal detail and one open question. Make answering easy.
Tip 4: Give matching time
International letters move slower by design. Refresh preferences weekly instead of chasing instant replies.
FAQ
Why am I not getting matches?
Incomplete profiles and generic first letters are common causes. Add specifics and try again.
Should I write in English only?
Write in a language you share. Mention alternatives if you are open to more than one language.
