30 Minutes
TWO STRANGERS. TWO BLINDFOLDS. 30 MINUTES.
Could you choose connection before appearance?
No phones. No distractions. Just connection.

The Experience
Connection—without the first impression.
30 Minutes is a dating experience built around genuine conversation. Two strangers meet without seeing one another and spend thirty uninterrupted minutes discovering who is sitting behind them.
Both participants remain blindfolded and seated back-to-back. They may choose to touch hands, but no other physical contact is permitted.
When time expires, each person must decide: is the connection strong enough for a second date?
Appearance stays out of the conversation. Your voice doesn’t.
