Yes! Plus as a youthful female, I often felt really put off by the messages I would receive on sites like couch-surfing, so being able to see people's entire interactive timeline through the blockchain can really up the safety and community engagement.
I'm really excited about using this platform for me and my honey's future travels through India, South America and hopefully Canada too!
As a gal with a degree in linguistics, I think it would be an incredible way to teach and learn languages as well. Pretty much free learning environments, plus the posts that can come from these community interactions would be like the most supreme meet-ups! We could even organize big projects like helping people rebuild homes and start permaculture projects.
So Many Incredible Possibilities!
