We have the new web app ready for next week https://eseek.app/singles/ [https://chat.whatsapp.com/EaFzeakk5qn3RQGIcnTltA?mode=gi_t](https://chat.whatsapp.com/EaFzeakk5qn3RQGIcnTltA?mode=gi_t) Think of this as a simple event-style matching for singles 💫 You create a profile 👤 → people browse profiles and choose who they’re interested in 👀 → even if it’s just two people getting anonymously matched, you’ll both meet at our event venue 🤝 That’s how it starts—and over time, it grows into a full, vibrant event 🎉 So go ahead, create your profile and check back weekly 🔄 to see if you’ve received any anonymous tags 💌 You all said you wanted a singles event product This will work well if 3 things happen, 1\. you create a decent profile 2\. You tag people in for each week event 3\. At least one person who got tagged in volunteers to host and coordinate the group on the event board\. This is like meetup for slightly more attractive people - sorry. Try it, setup your profile - you might just get to meet someone new. If you like this idea, leave a comment below or contact us on our instagram. **Follow us at** [https://www.instagram.com/eseek_travel_app/](https://www.instagram.com/eseek_travel_app/)

Thanks for joining the Money Minds meetup group. If you would like to be the first to know whenever a new event is announced, please join our whatsapp group using the link; [https://chat.whatsapp.com/DPbMfZndPooGHSxFCLCKHg](https://chat.whatsapp.com/DPbMfZndPooGHSxFCLCKHg) The Psychology of Money by Morgan Housel explores the unique and often overlooked role of human behavior and psychology in financial decision-making. Housel argues that financial success isn't solely determined by mathematical or economic principles, but also by how we, as individuals, perceive and react to money. This perspective challenges the conventional wisdom that financial success is solely a matter of making the "right" decisions based on market trends and economic theories. Housel emphasizes the importance of understanding the emotional and psychological aspects of money, which are often ignored in traditional financial education. He highlights the significant impact of personal biases, the role of luck and risk, and the human tendency to overestimate our abilities to predict the future. The book stresses the value of long-term financial planning and the importance of saving money for future needs, rather than focusing solely on short-term gains. The Psychology of Money also delves into the concept of "enough," suggesting that financial contentment is crucial for long-term happiness and success. It encourages readers to think critically about their financial goals and the true value of money in their lives.

The Republic of Moldova is a small country located between Romania and Ukraine. Little known in Europe, it blends the charms of unspoiled nature with unique history and even more intriguing present. **Often referred as a hidden gem of Europe**, proves its unique character on every corner. Hundreds of kilometers of cellars filled to the ceiling with millions of wine bottles, cave monasteries, Transnistria – the soviet era stronghold are just a few curiosities awaiting travelers here. A short distance outside Chisinau is two of the countries most unique gems. **Milestii Mici** is a vineyard with the **world’s largest underground wine cellar**, with literally millions of bottles and more like an underground city with **endless kilometers of tunnels best explored on a bike!** And the **ancient city of Orheiul Vechi between the narrow bend of the Raut River** with eroded limestone rocks and the archaeological vestiges of the Trypillian civilization. You’ll find **cultural layers of different epochs** from the Paleolithic, Eneolithic, and Iron Age. Inhabited since ancient times to this day, Orthodox monks still guard the churches and grottos of this natural fortress. **Transnistria,** officially the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic, is a breakaway state, unrecognized internationally part of Moldova, **under military occupation by Russia**. It’s territory is a narrow strip of land between the Dniester River and the Moldovan-Ukrainian border. To enter Transnistria is to **take a time-machine back to Soviet era**, you’ll think you were still in a cold-war geopolitical no-man’s land, with **strange flags, statues of Lenin, vodka for a dollar, and more hammers and sickles than you’ll see anywhere else!** **Let’s go!!** **DAY 1 // Chisinau** We reach Chisinau in the afternoon and first we’ll stretch our legs on a walk through the greenest capital in Europe! Pass by Cathedral Park and Bell Tower, Victory Arc, neoclassical monuments and quaint bookstores. Time for dinner and first taste of Moldovan cuisine. Check in to hotel for overnight. **Day 2 // Orheiul Vechi + Milestii Mici** After breakfast we’ll head to Orheiul Vechi and discover the countryside. We’ll explore the ancient monasteries and cave complexes filled with grottos, churches, and hermitages in this open-air museum. Within a small area, you can see here many typical elements of this country: traditional rural culture, picturesque churches, meandering river, white cliffs, and lush green steppes. In the afternoon, we’ll hit the road to Milestii Mici for an **underground bike ride** through the world’s largest wine cellar! With a few tastings along the way, we’ll head back to hotel for a well-deserved rest and dinner, perhaps a quick look at local nightlife. **Day 3 // Transnistria** After early breakfast of brânzoaice and strong coffee, we start our journey to Transnistria, the self-proclaimed independent republic with its own currency, border guards, and government. First stop will be the 16th century Tighina Fortress on our way to Tiraspol, the capital of Transnistria, founded by the Russian general Alexandr Suvorov in 1792. We’ll pass by his statue in the square as we walk around the city, with stops at monuments, theatres, parliament houses and all manner of curiosities. Return to Chisinau for overnight. **Day 4 // Departure** Free time at leisure before transfer to airport. Bye Bye Moldova! **Grade**: easy, available to everyone. **Activities:** sightseeing, leisure cycling, immersion in Soviet era (Transnistria). **Accommodation & meals:** 4 star hotel, double sharing rooms, meals excluded. **Cost: 2920 AED excl. flights util APR 25th.** **Specifically excluded:** flights, visa (Schengen grants entry), insurance, meals except breakfasts. **Visa:** In addition to Schengen visa, some passports require additional permit (or simplified visa) to enter Moldova, [details here.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visa_policy_of_Moldova) *It is participant sole responsibility to assure admission to country of destination.* See yah in Moldova x Trekkup Crew [Whatsapp 050 4848238](https://wa.me/971504848238) / [info@trekkup.com](http://info@trekkup.com/) [Find all trekkups at linktr.ee/trekkup](https://linktr.ee/trekkup)

**Some basics to start** Women we are going to introduce this, we may do a women-only version, but generally we are telling women instead of women-only, just do tag a person into the event. We are releasing a simple web version to test this. Can women be early adopters? [https://chat.whatsapp.com/EaFzeakk5qn3RQGIcnTltA?mode=gi_t](https://chat.whatsapp.com/EaFzeakk5qn3RQGIcnTltA?mode=gi_t) **Important** we are seeing early event mostly women are selected, which means you will show up to an event where women are in majority. women set up your profile here, if you want mostly women at the event then just tag other women. [https://eseek.app](https://eseek.app) 📩 Invite System (Tag-A-Person in) Events are shared through a “tag a person” invite system. Only tagged users receive event details. 🎟️ Arrival Check-In On the night of the event, users press a Check-In button when they arrive. Everyone who checks in is added to a live attendee list. 👥 Friend Matching After check-in, each person is automatically assigned 1–3 potential friends from the attendee list. 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Personal Board Posting Users post on their personal board: 👗 What they’re wearing 📍 Where they are sitting/located in the venue 🔍 Find & Connect Assigned matches can view posts to: Identify each other Find each other in real life Form groups naturally ⚖️ Self-Regulated Attendance System No host is required. Access is controlled through tagging and invites. ♀️ Gender Balance Mechanism Women are encouraged to confidently tag other women. This helps increase female participation and maintain a balanced (or women-majority) ratio. 📱 MVP Mobile Test The concept is being built as a simple mobile version for initial testing. 🚫 No-Host Reality Check Free events where a host is expected to show up and spend all their time organizing and managing large groups of idiots is not something we are supporting - if you want free - this is what you get, I suggest you embrace it.
