Gone Abroad simplifies connecting with friends and family while you travel, allowing you to plan and share trips in a more valuable way. Gone Abroad is a mobile application that geographically sorts friends to make it easier to connect while traveling. It allows travelers to see where their friends have been, currently are, or where they are planning on going in the future from inputted dates and cities. You can also see which of your mutual friends are traveling to those places by connecting through Facebook.

Gone Abroad was started by co-founders Evan Bloom and Ilan Bagel after they studied abroad together in Sydney, Australia. While there, they noticed a lot of issues faced by study abroad students, and there wasn’t a platform to help solve these issues. Evan and Ilan are recent graduates of the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

We’re looking to grow a group of motivated people working towards a common goal. Gone Abroad is something we’re passionate about because we know how much it can help people. Since we’re such a young company, there is so much room for growth. The journey to a successful startup is long and difficult, and we’re looking for someone ready to take on the challenge with us.
