The site brings in a lot of novel features to bring members in contact with others suited to their personality. The Personality profile questionnaire is based on accepted psychological theories used by professionals and is effective in bringing like-minded people together.
One of the major problems of this interracial dating site is that the features and icons get loaded very slowly.
In our view, the site offers good value for money, as it has plenty of novel and interesting features for bringing you close to other people of different cultures and ethnicities. The travel connect is a very useful feature.
