    If you like writing letters, and if you want to practice your English, penpalling is probably the best choice!

    Personally I used to be very bad at English when I was at the high school and I know it was very helpful for me to correspond with English-speaking people. There are many websites about penpalling but my favorite are http://www.penpalsnow.com and http://maarten.daams.tripod.com/ .

    You can post an ad to introduce yourself. It's easy, but don't forget to be chatty. Tell about your life & your hobbies, and don't forget to precise the type of pals you're looking for.

    To have a penpal is a funny way to practice a language & to discover an other culture. Don't hesitate to try it!

    No, I don't. A lot of websites are free and I avoid paying sites.
