Waste of Money

If you want to waste your money pay for this app. Everyone who claims to be a “local” free to meet up, help or show you around NONE respond to your messages. It’s like international Tinder. I only received messages from men with no travel plans even though I clearly stated was looking only for people where I’d be for a meal etc I had a married man ask me if I wanted to be his “travel Partner” if I’m into that sort of thing. That is a no.

Racist tactics

I have suffered from racism they attacked me because of my profile photo they want me to change it. They claim it does not show how I really am but this is a way to harass people from different ethnicities so I told them I will not be bothered.
