I always dreamed of having a pen pal since I was little after hearing stories about keeping friendships going from across the globe ...

Slowly has made me realise what a beautiful world there is out there! There are so many lovely people out there waiting to be discovered!

They speak of a world unfamiliar to me, but they gave me the key and showed me around.

I wrote in my bio that I would be returning in December...

We often exchange stories, about our fears and worries about life. I never hesitated to tell him anything.

Gil went out of his way, taking time off work to show us around his hometown of Querétaro, taking us to places we would never have found without him.

We felt like we were in the same room, even though we were almost a thousand kilometers apart.

I felt like I have traveled to South Korea, The UK, India, The US, Cuba, and Brazil through my letters from lovely penpals.

My past me probably wouldn't believe that I can now talk to people with ease and not feel overwhelmed all the time...

If you’re having a hard time now, don’t hesitate to send a letter to someone! We’re never alone, because we’re all connected.

Slowly has helped me come out of my shell and become more confident that people will appreciate what I say.

As an Introvert, the most hardest thing to do is to make friends and this app definitely made it easier for me to communicate ...
