Your First Look at Love Without Borders
The new series follows five American singles traveling to an unknown overseas destination in search of love.
What if your soulmate was on the other side of the earth? That’s exactly what the cast of Love Without Borders is about to find out.
Coming to Bravo on Wednesday, November 30, the new dating show follows five singles who have struck out at love in the United States. Each of them will travel to an unknown overseas destination to be paired with their “perfect” life partner, but not before saying goodbye to their jobs, homes, and families.
Thankfully, they won’t be completely on their own. As relationship expert Arica Angelo explains in the above first look at Love Without Borders, she’ll not only match the cast members with their potential soulmates but also help them as they move in and live with their new partners.
Along the way, they’ll get to experience life as a local — a welcome change for many of them, including Gurleen Virk, who’s been putting up with San Diego’s “hookup culture” for too long. “I suck at casual dating,” she says in the trailer. “I go on a date and I envision the next five years of our life together.”
Naeem Thompson is equally fed up with Texas, explaining, “I don’t fit in with the dating scene or dating expectations in Houston.”
Others, while just as eager to jump at the opportunity that Love Without Borders presents, are more hesitant to leave home. Aaron Motacek belongs to a tight-knit family, and when his mom reassures him that he’ll be “coming back” when the social experiment ends, he hesitantly tells her, “I mean, it could be long term.”
Then there’s Danna Richards and Philip Michael Thomas Jr., both musicians ready to risk it all for love. Danna hails from Montana but began embracing adventure long ago, giving up her traditional home to roam the country in a van, while Philip is so focused on finding the right relationship that he has committed himself to celibacy.
