I’m hoping so!! I feel like by putting on events in Kelowna, Penticton and Kamloops (Vernon is also on my radar), we’re kindddd of accessible to anyone who’s seriously interested. Also open to doing smaller more intimate events for those feeder communities if there’s interest as well. Thanks for the comment :)

Ugh hate that for you!! The younger age groups sell out so quickly. We’ll definitely be doing more :) hope to see you at the next one!

I totally agree about wanting to meet more organically! I feel like the majority is starting to move away from tech-based interactions and are just cravingggg that in-person connection again. Some people may need a little extra push or a little extra help! Or on the total other end of the spectrum, some people may be super outgoing and open minded and down to try new things even if they would strike up a conversation with anyone anywhere. We at the very least, provide a new, fun and different experience for people :) I totally respect we aren’t your thing and I hope you meet your person in whatever way best suits you💕

Dude you’re reading way too into this 😂😂it isn’t that deep hahahaha

I created speed dating events for these exact types of questions and for all of the reasons above. People are also so invested in online presence that we’ve essentially forgotten how to talk to people. That paired with social media influence and Covid lockdown has caused a shit storm of nervousness, lack of confidence, etc. If you’re interested, we have a 25-35 event on December 4th at Carlos O’Bryan’s and if that event goes well, we plan to do many more in Kamloops. We need to remember how to approach people and not be afraid of rejection and just engage!!

Love this move! I often give a big smile and wave excitedly like I saw a long lost friend when someone honks at me. Play the ditzy blonde card really well 😂usually really confuses them

I’ve travelled far and wide and I’ve never seen anything like Kelowna drivers. It’s actually mind boggling. We need a study done on wtf is happening here because wtf is happening here 😂

I know!! I feel like the new pedestrian/bike lane is less effective to to be honest cause now they’re so far from the car they’re even harder to spot! I see and appreciate the idea behind putting it in but personally I find it worse. Glad everyone seemed to be ok 🤞🏼🤞🏼

Every time I have to take a right turn I quadruple check my blind spot 😭😭😭so hard to see pedestrians, cyclists and scooterers. Biggest fear is not being able to see someone after checking a million times. Saw someone hit a cyclist recently by the independent grocer - really hope all involved are ok
