Imagine buying a movie ticket without watching the trailer first — talk about a risky move — then you proceed into the theater fingers-crossed, hoping for the best. Let’s just say your money might not be the only thing rolling with the credits at the movie’s end.

The same principle applies to traveling to a new destination. You wouldn’t just show up at a random place without a clue of what to expect, would you?

I mean, sure, if you’re all about spontaneity and living on the edge, you might be down for a random adventure. But if you’re craving that picture-perfect trip, you’re probably asking yourself some serious questions, like:

What if it’s swarming with tourists in the scorching summer heat? Or worse, a hotspot for allergy triggers?

And let’s not even get started on the food situation; what if you can’t find your favorite comfort dish? There’s only one recipe there — disaster.

The biggest question however is what if you don’t know where to go? What if instead of packing your bags and going to the most popular places that every other person goes to, you want to be inspired to visit destinations and hidden gems worth exploring? How do you even begin — where do you go?

After all, nobody wants to invest their time and resources in a place they might end up not liking.

Now, where do you turn for answers?

Well, according to research, Google reigns supreme as the go-to oracle for destination intel. After that, it’s the trusted advice of friends and family, followed by the good ol’ guidebooks.

The truth is, finding inspiration isn’t always as simple as a Google search makes it seem. Guidebooks? Might as well try to tackle War and Peace during your lunch break. And don’t even get me started on the endless influencer scroll — a one-way ticket to a social media rabbit hole.
