I am wondering where I should go to get a pen pal. I have googled and for even more info, I wikied (is that how you spell the past tense to wiki?)

So far, the australian one seems to interest me.

I'm kind of unsure to do this because I don't want to end up writing to some one false..I hope you know what I mean.

Is there like a certain office or a place I can go to to sign up for a Pen pal?

I'm interested in learning more of German or Japanese.

Armed Forces

I am looking for someone to just practice the language with. Nothing special.

And from a foreign country.

How to get a pen pal.

1. Write a letter
2. Put your address on the outside of envelope
3. Tie letter to balloon and release
4. Expect reply from new pen pal within 2 months

This has to be one of the coolest things I've ever done, especially since it worked.

Identity theft anyone?

That must be one very tough balloon and far traveling....

You cant steal an identity with an address.. that infos in the phonebook anyway.

I just found myself a really good Japanese penpal a few weeks ago. She writes me almost every day... one moment and I'll link you to the site.
