How it works

In a few minutes you have a circle of friends in the city of the language you want to live.

  1. Pick the language and the city

    There are 57 languages. Spanish, for example, has circles in Mexico City, Madrid, Buenos Aires, Bogotá and Santiago, each with its own accent.

  2. Meet your circle

    Polly introduces your first friends: a neighbor, a coworker, the barista down the street. Swap anyone you like.

  3. Chat at your own pace

    They send texts, voice notes and photos throughout the day, following their own routines. You reply whenever you can, by text or by voice.

  4. Call whenever you want

    Voice or video calls with live captions whenever you want them. Tap any word in the captions to see its meaning.

  5. Help one tap away

    Tap a word to see its meaning, hold a message and tap "I didn't get it", or ask the circle's bilingual tutor for help.

  6. Your circle grows

    Friend requests, groups and neighborhood communities, status updates with photos of their day and letters from mentors in history.
