Yes (several times), it was great, however I would advise anyone who thinks of doing it to be careful who they are meeting and take their time to get them know well in advance.
Yesss, I met my penpal from turkey! She stayed at my house for 1 week. It was awesome ๐ I can't wait to see her again! (but then i will go to turkeeyy!)
Yes, I've met 2 of my penpals in real life๐ In a situation, when your penpal visits your country and stays at your place it's good to consider cultural differences together to avoid awkward situations๐
Yes three persons and i say great expierense!
But really first make sure you get to know someone and best is to never meet alone the first time.
If you get the oppertunity i say do. It made my life way better.
Met 9 people so far,
about to meet 6 people this year

This year (If I don't count doubles) 6 new, 4 in Italy + 2 in the netherlands ๐ and maybe one in Belgium, but still have to fix that trip ๐
