Swanned is the World’s only British Irish expat app helping you find dates & mates.
We bring together Brits & Irish living in Sydney, so you can meet people who get the banter & craic, the homesickness, the questionable drinking decisions and why a roast dinner, or spice bag can cure basically anything.

You shouldn't have to explain what a Greggs is on a first date. Or why you're irrationally excited when someone mentions Wetherspoons. Or why "yeah, no worries" sounds suspiciously like they're actually quite annoyed. Swanned connects you with Brits & Irish in Sydney who already speak your language. Literally.
Whether you've just landed, been here for ten years or are still telling everyone you'll "probably move home next year"…There are thousands of Brits & Irish around Sydney doing exactly the same thing. Find someone for a pint in Surry Hills, a beach day in Coogee, Sunday drinks in Bondi or a spontaneous "one more" that somehow ends at 2am.
Not every connection needs to start with "So, what are you looking for?" Maybe you want a mate to go for drinks with. Maybe you want someone to explore Sydney with. Choose Mates or Dates and go from there.
There's a certain magic that happens when you meet someone from home. You can bond over Love Island, roast dinners, terrible weather, and the eternal question of whether Australia really is that much better. You don't need to explain the banter or the craic… And you definitely don't need to pretend you understand AFL.
Fancy a swim at Bondi followed by a pint? A Sunday sesh in Newtown? A ferry to Manly? A pub crawl through Paddington? A beach day that somehow turns into drinks, dinner and a very questionable Uber home? Find your mates up for anything on Swanned.
Let's be honest. Moving halfway around the world is exciting. But sometimes you miss home. You miss your family. Your mates. The pub. The food. The accents. The ability to have a conversation without having to explain what "taking the piss" means. Swanned makes it easier to find your little piece of home in Sydney.

“I can’t recommend Swanned enough! Almost two years ago, my girlfriend and I met through the site, and we’re now happier than ever. Being so far away from home, it’s amazing to have a place where you can meet people from the same country and instantly have that shared connection and understanding. We’re so grateful that Swanned brought us together, and we’ll always have the app to thank for our story!”
Denis & Cathy
"I just wanted to write an email as my way of saying thank you for creating such an easy app to use and that you are changing people's lives for the better and although this is a business I am sure you will never be able to fully comprehend the love that Swanned helps bring into the world and the countless relationships and friendships that it has helped build"

"Guys, I owe you big time. Met my boyf on this app. 5 years today this week. Thank you so much. I hope it gives others hope too. He's Irish and so am I - we have moved back home and bought a house together."
Laura
Unlike other apps, people’s intentions are clear from the start so you don’t fall in love with someone who's about to move back home.
