Questions about Meeting People Abroad

Interest forums / Gap Year & Round the World Travel

Hi, everyone!! I’m a Marketing student in the States and I have to do a research assignment. I love traveling and have backpacked through Australia and Indonesia and the UK, so I figured I’d do a project that involves traveling!! I have a few questions I’d like to ask, and I’d be super appreciative if you could take a minute or two to answer… Thanks!!

1) Have you traveled before?

IF YES:
2) Did you make friends mostly with locals, or with other travelers?
3) How did you meet them?
4) Would you be willing to use an app or website to meet people while traveling?
5) What features would you want that app/website to have?

IF NO:
2) When you go, will you be more interested in meeting the locals, or other travelers?
3) Would you be willing to use an app or website to meet people while traveling?
4) What features would you want that app/website to have?

Thanks!! I appreciate it!
