Swiping Right Around the World - The Realities of Dating Abroad w/ Hillary Dowdle #158


Listen Later

Forget swiping in your hometown—what happens when you take your dating life global? Let’s talk about it.

In this episode, host Kim Anderson sits down with the International Tinderella herself, Hillary Dowdle, to dive into the highs, lows, and laugh-out-loud moments of dating abroad while living the digital nomad life.

From spontaneous swipes in Lisbon to cultural surprises and unexpected connections, you’ll get the inside scoop on how dating abroad can change your perspective—no pressure, no expectations, just fun. You’ll also find out which dating apps actually work overseas, how to handle those inevitable language barriers, and why setting clear boundaries is a total game-changer.

If you’ve ever dreamed about meeting someone while traveling—or just want a peek into the world of international dating—this episode is packed with stories, insights, and plenty of laughs.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

  • Why dating abroad can be way more fun (and less stressful) than dating at home
  • Why you should skip the small talk and go straight to the date
  • Safety measures to protect yourself
