I would love to have one in canada or something. I've had european language exchanged but it's not the same when you can't communicate fluently! I'm nervous about going on one of these penpal websites though because you get some right weirdoes on them...


Same! That would be great!:biggrin:

Ideally, I'd love one in France, but hey ho.

I'm currently taking French for A2 (applied for Economics and French at uni), as well as English Lit and Maths.

I love French, films, music (crappy guitarist) and cooking, alongside loads of other random ****.

Feel free to PM... I'm pretty awesome :ahee:.

I had a penpal, but we kinda lost contact... I met her when I was in the Isle Of Wight anyway so I had been to her house, it wasn't as if we were strangers...

Nowadays I suppose it's easier to do things online- I have about 5 foreign people that I email on a regular basis :tongue:

I'd love one! I actually just joined this site for help on my EE and I find myself distracted here! XP

Anyway! PM me if you're interested! I'm not very excited about giving out my address either, but I think the idea of actually writing gets me so why not? I'm not a fan of facebook and random stuff like that so I think it'd be interesting to just have someone to look forward to write to.

But, on a side note, I'm open to emails! Anyone interested in writing to Paki-American Artist?

I hate the idea of someone knowing my address. If you accidently write something bad, they could get the Mafia to come to your house and wreck you.


Just the other day the Icelandic mafia came round and stole my WHOLE box of fox's biscuits

Might be abit weird but my friend is kind of like my pen pal too :smile:
Since I moved away from London to uni I randomly decided to surprise her with a letter from me, just a catch up filled with private jokes song lyrics memories etc. a letter but more creative and from then on we've just carried it on even though we have eachother on Facebook, have eachothers numbers, I have her on whatsapp and I have her email address but it's just a fun way of communicating :smile:

The joy of having a hand written letter and the laughs you get out of it are pretty cool :')

Just to let you know that, a TSR Penpal Group is on its way to be created. :smile:

http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/group.php?groupid=2218 The TSR Penpal Group is a reality! :smile: Get joining, peeps! :smile:
If someone still needs a pen pal, pick me!

I've had a pen pal for about a year now, I met him in real life when I went to England in December for my (rejected) Cambridge interview, and I didn't even feel that I was in the presence of a serial killer.

I wouldn't mind another one, especially from France or Scotland (< university). Or anywhere really. If anyone wants one, right over here.

Yes. I would like a penpal.

I'm only allowed 2 visiting hours per week. It does get rather lonely in here sometimes.



Original post by jamesmiguel
Lol this would be awesome :smile:

I remember having a Chinese pen-friend as a child (part of a school project), we only exchanged a few letters, but I remember at the time being impressed with her proficiency at English, and thinking how cool this was, sharing stories on other sides of the world :biggrin: Wonder whatever happened to her :redface:

So, yeah, I'd be keen for a pen-friend, either in the UK or international - anyone who's interested can PM me :smile: I'm a 24-year old law graduate, a guy, who lives just outside London, where I work (in the City as an analyst), and, ummm, that's about it really!

Anyone want a penpal from South Wales? I like handwritten letters :biggrin:

That would be fun, I'd tend to write pretty often too! Shall I inbox you my address?



sorry, just realised i quoted the wrong person :/


Original post by Studentus-anonymous
Can't hurt.



Original post by Alix23
That'd be great. Only problem is most people want an international penpal, but most people here are from the UK.

Hello there!

I cant agree more with you - I used to have a french penpal who we did meet once in London. :biggrin: It was great. Her letters are still carefully kept by me and I value so much the handwritten letters and the stamp on it. People nowadays just dont do it no more - pm me if you would like to be my 21th century penpal XD :smile:



Original post by JustinHavelock
cant find better description on the thrill of having a penpal than yours - pm me if you would like to be penpal. Though it is rather interesting that we find our penpals on the net instead of the magazines years ago! Anyone else?

I am looking forward to it.

I'd love a penpal! I used to have a French penpal through school but it all sort of fell apart as only school knew the addresses and they stopped getting us to write letters.

I always thought the idea would be fun and nostalgic. Kinda reminds me of French exchange in secondary school when we were encouraged to do this. :tongue: Everyone just uses Skype and Facebook these days. :frown:

I have a friend I met on Diddl.com when I was 10 (or however hold I was when Diddl was cool!) and I still write to her almost a decade later. I plan on meeting her for the first time this summer.

I am also still in touch with my German exchange partner from Year 8 (when I was 12) - we usually email but sometimes write letter and we see each other every year.

I'd love a french one, i have no idea where to find one though that would do hand written letters. My school(s) never had an exchange programmes or anything, sounds like it would be great! :daydreaming:


I have never multi-quoted so hopefully, you will all be able to read this: the TSR Penpal Group has been created. Link: http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/group.php?groupid=2218

Once we have a list of people we can organise ourselves and sort out who writes to who. :smile: Join the group!

aww can we hear the story?



Well my friend was going out with his friend at the time,both lads were in the RAF, and my friends BF asked her if she had any friends that would like to write to some lads in on camp in Europe.I wrote to 5 lads in the end,and my hubby was the only one to reply.Just started writing, and then we met about 4 months later.We had feelings for each other by then so we gave a relationship a go.It was an LDR but we made it.Got married just over 2 years later.

That was almost 19 years ago and we're still together.
