Good idea - may be re-inventing the wheel sort of. There have been pen pal networks for a long time. http://ppi.searchy.net/
A friend of mine years ago began writing to a pen pal from Boys Life (Boy Scouts) when he was 10 or 11. Years later he was able to visit his pen pal in Ethiopia while we were on a World Campus Afloat trip. He asked me if I wanted to come along - and I said your Boy Scout pen pal - grin - I don't think so. So I stayed on in Nairobi for another week while Bob went to meet his pen pal. When he met up with us in Djabouti, I asked him how the visit went, he grinned, handed me a photo and asked how do you think? It was a photo of him having tea and sandwiches with his old pen pal buddy Emperor Halli Salasi.

I am for it but we need not re-invent the wheel, eh? There is also a network http://profiles.tigweb.org/nedhamson
