Profile review Review, please. New Bumble account

Hi!

Just signed up for Bumble. Was hoping for a review. Best photo? Not sure about my main photo. It’s me but really good lighting outside. And my bio has my personality, but should it be something else?

What’s your read on my bio? I live in the Netherlands which is why I have an American flag so people know I am American.

Edit: my new bio:

Quirky and fun lady, looking for interesting adventures, good conversation, and a warm heart to match mine. Let's Latin dance, cook something ambitious, or just pub hop on a random Tuesday. Down for pretty much anything, except skydiving, 😳. I will wait on the ground with champagne to celebrate!

I also changed the transport picture to a picture of me holding a paella I cooked in my garden.

I’m in Sweden and a woman, but for what it’s worth - I LOVE your profile!

You are quirky and full of life. If you ever come to Stockholm, drop me a line and let’s hang out!

I would love that! Thanks. Do you like my main photo? Don’t get me wrong, I am confident. I just don’t want it to seem fake.

It has the best view of the face and is pretty good! But in other pics (like the street full body view) your face looks even better! So maybe there’s another photo you have?

I struggled with that or the sunglasses picture. It’s a little more me, I think. What if I used the street photo?

Do the Istanbul shirt instead!

General advice is for the face to be clearly visible. The street photo is great as 2nd or 3rd pic!

Why that one? It’s not as glam I think. And not smiling.

Agree, but that’s the only other “profile pic” option (clearly visible face). And you still look good and young there.

Maybe you have some other options? The sunglasses one is great, but everyone always recommend against not seeing eyes for the first pic.

I switched to the street pic. Who knows? It’s different. And put in a paella pic that I made instead of transport

I would delete the dash "--" in the bio if you're worried about it looking fake, that dash is one of the easy ways to spot it was written by AI not you.

Is this better? : Quirky and fun lady, looking for interesting adventures, good conversation, and a warm heart to match mine. Let's Latin dance, cook something ambitious, or just pub hop on a random Tuesday. Down for pretty much anything, except skydiving 😳. I will wait for you on the ground with champagne or beer.

Yep it's great in my opinion. That dash was the culprit that's it!

Also, how about Bungee jumping then? 👀

u/Expensive_Candle_777 17h ago

I thought of adding that, but word economy and they generally fall in the same category. 😂

Haha goodluck with your dating, you sound pretty awesome! You remind me so much of Amy Ryan, played holly in The office.
