TOGETHER ANYWAY
Long-distance dates
Even in two different places, you can share an experience at the same time.
Make the most of it.
A shared recipe, the same walk in a different city or a game played remotely gives your conversation a focus. Agree beforehand on how long you'll stay online and what you'll need.
- Test the connection or your chosen platform shortly beforehand.
- Choose something you can both access without an extra subscription.
- Arrange a specific time to connect again before you hang up.
