A Brazilian made a site of foreigners on Tinder during the World Cup

Thousands and thousands of people from over 30 countries descended on Brazil. Many of them are continuing to swipe right. These are their stories.

Perhaps you’re familiar with Tinder, the app that allows you to look at pictures of people of your gender of choice and swipe, indicating that you would like to have sex, date, or, yeah, hahahahahahaha, sure, be friends with them.

Anyway, it selects people based on their geographic proximity to you. This is great news for all the Tinder users heading to Brazil for the World Cup -- and all the Brazilian Tinder users who now have a fresh crop of people to look at.

Anyway, that’s what inspired Tinder Na Copa, a Tumblr by a Brazilian woman with screenshots of people in town for the World Cup, some of whom advertise their World Cup visitors status right up front.

The Cup ain’t half over yet, and it already has over 600 posts. Some might say that this is putting people on blast for using Tinder when they might not want their pictures showing up on the Internet. Rather, we hope to salute these International Tinder Voyagers. That said, if your boyfriend or girlfriend is in Brazil for the World Cup and you see them on there, we’re glad to have helped.

USA Today reports that Brazil has the third-highest number of Tinder users.
