I’ve always wanted to talk to people, whether it’s at the airport, on my flight, or at my destination. I love connecting with people who have different backgrounds and unique stories, but I’m usually too shy to say the first “hi.”

​

In today’s world, where more and more people rely on AI for answers, I believe we should bring back asking people for tips and advice, supporting one another while travelling. Bringing back real human connection.

​

Most social travel apps today are built mainly for solo travellers. I’m on a mission to change the belief that socialising while travelling is only for solo travellers.

​

Come join me in rebuilding human connection while travelling.​
