We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either). When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company). as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. I don’t know that Kakao talk has this feature but I would assume so.Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. The translator is not automatic it is a service provided by line that you will have to find and add as a friend in order to use it. Both are fairly simple to use and if the language barrier is still an issue I know that Line has a service which translates languages for you and will then write what you want to say back in the language you need For example when talking to my Korean friends who don’t know English very well, they write in hangul and I forward their message to the translator, its translates (duh) and then I write what I want to say in English and it will write my words in hangul for me. Kakao talk has these features as well, so no need to download both just pick the one you’d rather use. I have Line and I really like it, it is easy to use and you can message, video chat and calll for free as long as you have some sort of connection to the internet. They are pretty much like whatsapp or kik and are available to download for free for both androids and iphones. These are "Kakao talk" and "Line".These two are massively popular amongst Asian countries so you will often find (like I did) you may get asked to talk on these instead. This app I would recommend for those who after meeting new people via one of the above apps wish to take their conversation to an easier platform. I believe it’s available for both Iphone and android users so everyone’s a winner.This is another free app This app also automatically translates all postcards sent and received so that you can understand it,no need to worry if your hangul isn’t good. That being said it is super cute and fun, I do enjoy it regardless of its flaws. Most apps just put your profile out there but this one doesn’t do that and you don’t really have a profile other than your country, age and gender. The only downside to this app is that it is hard to start a conversation with someone unless you are writing postcards (not real ones obviously) on a regular basis. I think its a fun way to chat to people around the world and if you don’t want to do that you can always talk to people locally. But if you keep them and give the person you have a postcard with a nickname your conversation should be saved. The design of this app is great I love it, very kawaii! It reminds me of snapchat somewhat since once you’ve seen and read a postcard you can’t see it again after going to reply. Next is my personal favourite at the moment, "Doki Doki Postbox ". This app is not exclusively to talk to people from Asian countries, you can talk to anyone from anywhere in the world. As far as I’m aware this is a free app but you may need to double check before you download it. If you read the reviews loads of people have successfully managed to meet and make friends. I haven’t used this app personally but apparently it is really good. So the most well known one is "epenpal" this is exclusively for those of you with android phones, sorry Iphone users. ALSO DON’T MEET STRANGERS FROM THIS AND IF YOU DO STAY IN PUBLIC PLACES OR GO IN A GROUP…don’t mean to patronise anyone, just reminding! THEY MAY SEEM HARMLESS BUT COULD IN FACT BE DANGEROUS PEOPLE, SO TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF AND BE WARY OF GIVING OUT PERSONAL INFORMATION. Some I myself have tried and enjoyed, others come highly recommended.īEFORE DOWNLOADING ANY OF THE APPS MENTIONED PLEASE BE FULLY AWARE OF YOUR OWN ONLINE SAFETY. I wanted to share some apps with you guys if you’re looking to make any foreign friends in Korea, China, Japan etc. If you’re anything like me and obsessed with Asian culture then I guess this is the post for you.
