Apps to Get Hooked Up!

Written By | Francesca Smart

There are a variety of apps and websites to assist you in finding love… even if just for a night. Here are some
GirlGI approved ways to meet people online and abroad with a few anecdotes from GGI escapades.

Best for Dating | OkCupid

2

Best for Hookups | Badoo

Best for Hookups while travelling | Tinder

From my experience, the quality of people on
this site is much higher (both in looks and
career) and it’s not an app that screams ‘I want
to f#ck’ like many other dating apps out there.
It gives you a peace of mind that people who
contact you via the app actually want to get to
know you.

In Europe this app is cray! I
actually met my last love on this app. It takes
a different approach to meeting people though
and shows you other users that have been in
the same places as you such as your favourite
bar, restaurant or music venue.

This is a widely used app, and is thus great for
traveling. I’ve dupped Tinder the ‘I’d tap that...’
app. When I see a picture on Tinder with the
outline of an X and a heart below, I feel like I’m
being asked, ‘would you have sex with this person?’ However, unlike apps like Skout (below),
you login through Facebook, so you’re less
likely to see outdated images and you can see
if you have any
mutual FB friends.
