“Work hard and play hard” is the motto for many of us who work tirelessly. So when we earn that one week off, we want to treat our physically and mentally exhausted selves to the most memorable vacation, and as even the most beloved ones can disrupt the cathartic experience we are seeking, many prefer to travel freely, often alone.

We envision beautiful postcard-perfect images of exotic vacation destinations and drool over scrumptious local dishes we conjure up. We imagine befriending locals who share our interests and perhaps even running into our dreamy soul-mate.

But stark reality can strike us hard. Hyped up destinations are dirty and overcrowded; you get food poisoning, get scammed, and end up lost in the ghetto. We still remain optimistic, however, imputing blame on our lack of research. “Do not despair,” we tell ourselves, “learn from your mistakes and do better next time.”

Better equipped to prepare for our next hard-earned time away, we begin our research to ensure our next vacation is nothing less than perfect.

Inspired and excited, we start with flights, a time consuming task when trying to factor in humane flight time, minimal layovers, legroom, etc. We experiment with different dates/times for flights and nearby airports in search of saving a few bucks. We repeat this process in several online travel agencies and identify the best deal. Halfway confident, we contact individual airlines directly to ensure we haven’t missed a special deal.

After numerous hours spent on searching for that perfect flight, we move onto identifying the most affordable hotel room in the middle of all attractions. Choices are overwhelmingly immense. There are numerous online travel agencies, airbnb, Craigslist, individual hotels, etc. But without understanding the area and its main attractions, we are clueless as to the ideal location for the hotel.

So research begins during which time we end up pulling our hair out trying to read up on countless tourist spots, outdoor activities, organized tours, concerts and events, clubs, markets, etc. — and every one of these have million reviews with contradicting opinions to confuse us even more.

By this time some of us throw in the towel and opt for a nice relaxing time at home convinced that solo travel can be dangerous, lonely, and not worth the time, effort, and money. But deep inside, we long for an adrenaline-producing adventure; we long to free ourselves from our mundane lives and explore an exotic and unfamiliar place.

We DREAM of some system that would spit out an ideal travel schedule custom -to suit our interests and desires complete with verified hotels, activities, tours, restaurants, and even local transportation. To top that, unpredictable variables such as changing weather and even political/economic situation of the travel destination are factored in. Wouldn’t we be impressed if such system exists?

Wouldn’t it be amazing if this system can also find us the most compatible travel companion on-the-fly during our solo travel only when we need a friend?

Wouldn’t it be great if this system can provide us with a local guide on-the-fly who can introduce us to the local culture for any length of time, AND this guide is identified based on our input conditions such as desired activities, hobbies, and interests?

What if this system uses blockchain technology to minimize control of a single entity, making it decentralized, secure, and transparent? Wouldn’t you be able to completely trust the system?

Now this is the best part!! To top it all, what would you say if this system REWARDS us for SIMPLY BENEFITTING from it? Unbelievable and counterintuitive, right?

Well, believe it or not, this system ACTUALLY exists: it’s called TOURCOM Travel Platform!!! If you want to find out more about this amazing and unprecedented technology, please visit Tourcom official Homepage: http://tourcom.io (English version of white paper available)
