This app connects with people who are in the same area as you. It doesn’t have to be the same exact location but within a certain mile radius. It is linked to your Facebook and pulls pictures from your profile, at random, to your tinder app profile. You are then presented with pictures of other people in your area. You swipe left or right depending on if you would like to match with them or not.
If you do match, you then are able to access the messaging field and start messaging.

This is perfect for any traveler! Just make sure you download the app before you depart and let your friends know to download it too, so you can message back and forth. Many people who travel abroad take advantage of this app!
