Coffee and chat, a walk, language exchange, board games or a museum. Each activity shows the place, how long it takes and the price, and you can look around without an account.
Step 2
Request a time
Choose a day and a time that suits you. You and the host both agree to the same simple house rules, and your card is only held until you've met.
