A Local Friend is exactly what it sounds like - a friendly, genuine local who spends time with a language-learning visitor, sharing their city and culture and connecting over common interests. Through FlyingSponge, learners are matched with locals who enjoy similar things, whether that’s food, dancing, football, or anything else. We’re not looking for tour guides, but real people who love where they live and like the idea of meeting someone new. FlyingSponge makes the introduction - after that, it’s just two people getting to know each other. Sound interesting? Its also paid, start your application below!
