Before the 1990s, the travelers had the only option to depend on the local travel agents for planning their vacation trip like booking flight tickets, hotel accommodations, sightseeing etc. But, things have changed since the advent of internet and technology. These days, travelers can easily plan for their international travel using the online travel sites like TripAdvisor, Expedia etc. Let’s assume that you are in France and would like to visit Taj Mahal, India (one of the seven wonders of the world). What will you do? You may visit the travel website Expedia, click ‘Flight + Hotel’ on the homepage to find out the list of available flights and hotels. You will be checking out the flight timings, ratings & reviews for hotels, pricing etc before starting the booking process. Once you finish the booking process, you can read the full history about Taj Mahal from Wikipedia. So, you have very well planned for the travel easily within an hour or so. Great! This kind of process is suitable for normal travelers, but not for millennials and Gen Z people.

Who are Millennials and Gen X people? How are they significant? Millennials are those people who are born between the 1980s and 1990s whereas Gen Z people are born between 1990s and 2000s. Both millennials and Gen Z people were born during the time at which the world is dominated by the digital technology like mobile phones, apps, etc. For them, feeling the magnificence of Taj Mahal is more important than taking a selfie. They want to visit the place like a new traveler but feel the experience like a local. They don’t bother to spend more money on getting a unique travel experience. That’s why they have started using local travel agents again instead of online travel sites.

To fulfill the needs of Millennials and Gen Z travelers, a new blockchain based travel platform named Cool Cousin (CC) is under development. CC is already available for web and iOS platforms. The main objective of CC is to connect the travelers with the like-minded locals (also called cousins) for the exchange of unlimited knowledge and information. The travelers can access the basic information about a tourist information for free from the CC platform. To get specialized service, they can use CUZ tokens to get the help of Pro-cousins. CUZ tokens are special utility tokens based on the ERC20 standard. These tokens will be sold by the company during its ICO token sale event.

How the Cool Cousin platform provides benefits to the locals? If someone is living in a location for more than 5 to 10 years, then they will have complete knowledge about that place. Why their vast knowledge should go in vain? Cool Cousin provides a great opportunity for the locals to earn extra income by sharing that knowledge. You don’t need any special qualification to become a cousin. It is enough if you have good knowledge about the tourist destination so that you can easily create a profile on the Cool cousin platform. For knowing more information about cousins, please visit the: Website, ANN and Bounty Threads and join the Telegram group.
