      There is a very cute and sweet lesbian couple living near Amsterdam. They are both dutch but speak perfect english. Their Instagram is @onceuponajourney and make incredible pictures!!
      You guys should definitely contact them and see if you can meet up.
      Btw, love your videos! 💜💜

      So happy for you both. But, is it possible for you to be together, in the same space, and NOT happy?!?!?
      Ps: finally got around to watching the "Color of Blue..." wow. Great movie! But, could you please tell your subscribers it is 3 HOURS LONG. Well worth it, but just need mange my time. eowza. Have your seen, "Tru Love"? Just watched tonight... really sweet.

      There’s a app called wink And Ik it sounds like a dating website but it’s a Teen Friend finder app. Of course it’s not only teens but you have to be 14 and older. So it’s a good option

    Bummer that I no longer live in the Netherlands, I would want to be friends with both of you.
    And that app idea... If you aren't, someone should get that going.
    Amsterdam has a great yoga scene. So once classes are up again, that would be a great way of making friends and connections, plus maybe a job for Alexis?
    Bakfiiiiiiiiiiets!

    You can use the app Bumble to make new friends! Bumble has three settings: Dating, Friends and Network. Many just don’t know and use it for dating only but yeah that’s a good option. I looked at it just because I was curious and such nice people appeared 🤷🏽‍♀️ Also I feel like bumble is pretty much the only free app that allows to describe yourself better and what your looking for with a various number of questions and answers. Have fun and hope you meet some cool people no matter how!!! ☺️☺️🧡
