The only relationship app that allows you to meet someone special based on the language they speak. Why would I want to do that? Well, it’s a great way to learn a language. And being in a bi-lingual relationship increases your opportunities to live, work and travel abroad. Just think, you'll get that all important practice time together as well as the motivation to improve because, well.... you want them to like you right? Motivation + practice = ninja! Isn’t this just like all the other dating apps? Nope. For a start it super simple. No long questionnaires. No gimmicks. No charms. Just you and your love of language and culture. Simply type in the language or languages you are interested in. Match with someone you like the look of and who wants to learn your language. Then……Chat - Meet - Learn - Love.
