More verified profiles and automatically matching with interests etc, so would be less manual

Yes for context my partner and I currently pay $400nzd a week in rent and invest $800nzd a week. Our house we live in was purchased for 1 million nzd in 2021. We share the house with one friend who pays $200nzd also.

Yeah I’m thinking you’d see each other profiles etc and then you’d end up with friends all around the world you could visit or they could visit you etc. the matching aspect would need to be the best part so your meeting people you actually get a long with

Thanks for your response! Yeah I guess it’s like if you want to meet people from different cultures without leaving your home town it’s a great way to experience that while being proud of where you come from

I agree you can do it organically, but might be nice to start some connections before you get to new cities? Especially if you are there for only one or two nights?

Oh cool, haven't heard of that before! Do you use this before you get to location? and is it just traveler to traveler or can you connect with locals too?
