Canadian Man finds woman with ex-gf's name for free trip around the world

The Canadian man who advertised on Reddit looking for any girl named Elizabeth Gallagher who he could take on a world trip because he and his girlfriend who he initially booked the air tickets for broke up before they could go on the trip together.

Well, he's found another woman with same name. According to Associated Press, he's finally found his travel mate, a lady named Elizabeth Quinn Gallagher, a 23-year-old student and part-time office administrator from Cole Harbour, Nova Scotia.

"It's strictly a platonic trip. It's going to be great," the man, 28 year old Jordan Axani said.

At first the new Elizabeth Gallagher thought a trip with a stranger whose ex-girlfriend's name is the same as hers was "crazy" but she hit it off with Axani after talking on the phone with him for hours.

"It definitely did seem a little bit creepy at the beginning but now that I talked to him it's less creepy and more awesome," she said.

She already has a boyfriend though.

"This is totally sort of like as friends," she said. "I have a pretty serious boyfriend. We've been together for a while. We're planning on buying a house and we have a puppy, so yeah I'm not really looking for anything at all."

In a new interview with Fader, André 3000 talked about suits for a bit before getting to the good stuff: Outkast’s reunion tour, which recently wrapped up in New Orleans after 40-plus dates. I wonder how he and Big Boi celebrated after that last show, beside not talking to each other — I hear they’ve got some decent food down there. Here’s the applicable block quote.
“I felt weird about going out on stage and doing it again. I felt like people would be like, ‘Y’all are doing all these festivals, y’all are just doing it for money,’ he said. “And I felt like a sell-out, honestly. So I was like, if I’m in on the joke, I’ll feel cool about it.”
