Where do people talk online nowadays?

I don't use it myself, so I might be wrong, but CulturePals seems the way to go.

Also, start up a Tinder account once you get there and say you're looking for people to show you what's great about their country and whatnot

Isn't Tinder solely for sex dating? I'll give it a try.

Mainly. Although I guess it's possible to just have friends from it, but it's mainly for people looking for serious relationships or just some easy sex.

Going back to your original question:

I think Facebook is still the default social media platform, however in my experience you don't add random people who you've never met Irl, atleast not over here, I imagine America is similar.

The usual way is to first meet someone on holiday in a club a pub or anywhere really, just make contact Irl initially. Then you ask them if they have Facebook, Twitter etc. most people do. But snapchat is very common amongst young people now.

Atleast in the West, I don't think randomly adding people online for 'meetups' when you visit their country is normal (no offence). You have other, more specific sites for that stuff like the Swede said –CulturePals but it's not that widespread I don't think and again I here that CP can be like Tinder with people just looking for sex or relationships.

Well it's not like I just throw a friend request and expect a person to show me around when I visit their country. I actually try to find people of similar age in a group I joined, so that we could have common interests, and I always start conversation, explaining why I'm writing. As a matter of fact, one girl replied to me and added to friends, but then she said she's being busy and she never wrote to me again. I guess she's lacking an interest. But I have made friends that way in Russian analogue of facebook (vk) in the past, and some of them are now my best friends, so I believe it could be possible. I guess I'll just try it more in facebook, it could just take more attempts to find the right people.

I just realized Tinder is an Android app, and I'm using a very basic mobile phone, and use a computer for the purposes of browsing the web. So I guess that's not my option. It seems I'm left with facebook and thematic forums.
