When you travel abroad, one of the most meaningful things you can do is meet locals or other travelers and have exciting experiences with new people who you wouldn’t have a chance to encounter otherwise. But meeting people, especially locals, abroad isn’t always easy. Sure, it seems like a great idea to strike up a conversation with a cool stranger at a bar or a park, but this is a lot easier said than done, and can be really intimidating.

Dating Apps Like Tinder

Well, there’s another option that you can use that’s super easy and effective, as long as you do it safely. We’re talking about meeting people on Tinder. That’s right, pretty much worldwide, people are on Tinder, which means that you can easily meet locals on an app you probably already use.

And, no, it doesn’t only have to be romantic connections. As long as you’re very clear on your profile and in your conversations about what you’re searching for, you can totally have strictly friendly encounters.

Be Careful

Of course, your safety should always be your top priority. Always meet people in public spaces and, ideally, bring along a friend if you can. Trust your instincts and don’t hesitate to cut off a meeting if you’re getting a bad vibe.

As long as you follow common sense, you should be able to have a great time meeting locals who can show you their favorite spots you wouldn’t have found out about otherwise.

If you’re in a new country, one way to meet locals is, of course, dating apps. It can be a lot of fun to meet up with locals for a drink and have them show you around and tell you what it’s like to live in that area. But there’s also a lot of risk to meeting people off the internet, so here are some safety tips to keep in mind. This isn’t an exhaustive list, so be sure you’re being cautious if you decide to go on a tinder date in a new place!

Always Tell Someone Where You’re Going

It’s always a good idea to enlist your friends to keep track of you. Luckily you can send people your location so they’ll be able to follow your moves, and you can ask them to check in every so often to make sure you’re okay.

Always Meet Somewhere Public

Make sure to start your date somewhere out in the open with lots of people, so that you don’t need to worry about being alone with a stranger. Never go to their house or allow them to come to yours, and remember that you can always leave if you feel uncomfortable. 

Do Some Googling

Before you start swiping, be sure to look around online to see if there’s anything people have said to watch out for.
