People love to travel, love to discover, love to explore and learn new things. Having worked and lived in the travel sector for more than 18 years, I always loved to see the excitement of travelers in their faces, the happiness in the kids smiles.

How amazing is the gratitude that the tourists (or guests as we call them in Crete, Greece) would express every time when we, the locals; I, their friend, would make a suggestion for a restaurant, for a monument, for a cultural or beach trip!

Common Issues When Traveling

The only problem was/is that people need to arrive to a country to be able to meet locals and ask for their guidance.

Or they can go online and search for reviews. But reviews, even if they are thousands of them, are not trustworthy. There is a full industry of buying reviews and posting them in all kind of review sites and social media. So trust is difficult to gain...

But apparently, decentralization and blockchain has come to give a hand in the travel industry too!
