An increasing number of travellers are using dating apps to meet fellow explorers, or locals who can show off the best of their city. And you never know what might happen; a lasting friendship, a unique experience, a hot international hook up, or even meeting the love of your life!
So go ahead and put yourself and your profile out there! Lauren Rees, from travel blog LastFiascoRun , shares some of her top tips on using dating apps when travelling.
Lauren tested her dating strategies out when she moved to Australia. I met a Canadian guy, he had a lot of travel photos on his profile, he surfed, and looked like he would be up for some fun activities.
You could even set up a date before you land! Urszula Makowska is an actress and blogger from New York, and travels a lot for work. I was recently in Portland, Oregon to film for a television show, but during my downtime, I wanted to explore and learn more about Portland. I quickly logged onto Tinder and decided that the first person I would swipe right with would be the first person I would meet up with! My date picked me up and drove me around the city sharing his favourite spots.
It was such a fun night! He also introduced me to Voodoo Donuts. They are extremely popular out there and they are very addictive!
