How can I get an e-mail penpal, age 13-16, who lives in the UK?

Question

I'm a 14 year old American, and have always wanted a penpal who lives in the UK (preferably Wales or England). I'd like to live there one day, so I'd find a penpal like that to be very interesting. =]

I don't want to actually write letters, but e-mail instead. (Mainly because giving out your address online is obviously not very safe.)

I would really like this person to be around the age of 14. (Give or take a year or two.)

How can I get one? Is there anyone here age 13-16 who lives in the UK and who'd like a penpal?

Thanks! =]

Also, sorry if this is in the wrong section. There really is no section for advice on how to get a penpal!

Answer 1

Try online sites like Friendster, Facebook, Multiply, etc.

Create your own first then maybe you could put in under your profile that you want to have a friend in U.K., preferably 13 to 16 yrs old.

You could also search for those living in U.K. and give them a message.
