Wayfare brings the world to you

Who doesn’t love to travel around and see the world up close? For the times you can’t leave your city, Wayfare is meant to bring what’s out there to you. The app is both a teaching tool and the modern-day equivalent of a pen pal. It connects you with someone to learn about their culture and home cities/countries. It’ll give you regular photo missions and let you send notes. If you guys don’t have a language in common, the app even comes with a built-in translation tool.
