As Solo Travel Booms, RoamCircle Launches to Support Women Travelers with Local Community Connections

Born from a lonely solo travel moment after a difficult breakup, founder Liz Rivas realized she was piecing together friendship and community through Dating apps, Facebook groups, Meetup, and disorganized WhatsApp threads. “I thought there must be ONE place to simply find other women who want to connect in the city they've just landed in. There wasn’t. So I built it.”
RoamCircle works like a Bumble BFF-style connection app, but designed specifically to safely connect female travelers and expats with friendship-first matching, local meetups, vetted and inclusive communities and curated events. RoamCircle is not a one-off meetup app, it’s a community app, designed to make every new city feel like home.
Why It Matters
Millions of women travel solo each year and while the journeys are empowering, they can also be isolating, intimidating, and hard to navigate socially. RoamCircle was built to remove that emotional barrier and make global cities feel more welcoming, safe, and connected.
“We’re making sure no traveler ever has to land somewhere new and feel alone,” says Rivas. “Friendship and belonging are part of the adventure not something that should be hard or unsafe.”
