Cool Cousin

A Concierge Soon-to-be-Blockchain-Powered P2P Travel Agency

CHECK IT OUT

Welcome to the future folks, this is such a fire idea. Totally takes "Google guides" to infinity and beyond in my opinion.

"It’s pretty simple: connect with vetted locals who share your interests — aka Cousins — and get a map of their favorite city spots and insider tips for spending your time and your dime in their hometown."

"With Cool Cousin, you’re just two index taps away from getting good personalized recommendations from someone you can trust. So long wasted hours navigating through too much information online." -source

Of course they have an app so you can set ur your entire trip on mobile, or become a "Cousin" yourself... As of right now this platform has my vote BUT even more exciting, they're transitioning into using blockchain-powered (etherium) smart contracts!

"The existing Cool Cousin platform is already quite innovative but the brand is looking to further its expansion with an implementation of a cryptocurrency named CUZ. The new token is using the Ethereum blockchain and will be used to incentivize the growth of its community of local experts. This will allow travelers to receive personalized concierge-like services from locals through a token-based, smart contract and P2P platform."-source

Hit me with those CUZ COINS! I'd love to be a "Cousin" in a city earning rewards for my knowledge about "the best pizza shop" or "you TOTALLY need to try the soup dumpings at THIS chinatown spot". It's something I've been doing for friends for years that I love. But also to be on the other side, having a personal city guide who can help you depending on your time, budget, and likes/dislikes, without wading through tons of reviews online or paying a travel agent (do they even exist any more??)

Could you imageine if your rewards were Rep-based like the ABV we have here on Steemhunt- proving the time and legacy you have with a place- making you essentially a "dumpling authority". Seriously Welcome to the Future.

THIS is the way we were meant to experience new places.
