Would you connect with locals before moving to a new city?

One of the core ideas behind WedBeas is simple:

Most social and dating apps focus on where you are now.

WedBeas also focuses on where you’re going next.

If a user only sets their current city, they’re treated as a Local.

If they also choose a destination city, they become a Traveller - and the discovery experience changes around that destination.

That affects:

• who can discover you
• who you can discover
• your Cityline feed
• matching
• local relocation information
• nearby tools and city resources

The idea is to let people start building social connections before they actually arrive in a new city.

I’m curious about the behaviour itself:

If you were planning to move or spend a long period in another city, would you actually want to meet locals before arriving?

And what would matter most to you first - friendships, dating, local advice, jobs, or simply understanding the area better?
