Now this is a cool idea for a travel business that makes a difference in peoples’ lives. Mashable did a quick profile on Kenji Summers, who started a company that helps take creative-types who have never been out of the country to international destinations. This is one of those “why didn’t I think of that?” ideas.
And in keeping with theme of great business ideas, thanks to the awesome folks over at Vagabondish I learned that Norweigian Air Shuttle is offering super cheap flights to Scandinavian cities from the U.S. Roughly $300 to get to Stockholm? Stop it. Given my love of all things Scandi (that’s what I like to call Scandinavia), if flights with these prices existed all the time, I would be somewhere in Scandinavia all. the. time.
The goods from Vagabondish kept coming this week as Mary-Ryan Lambert wrote a piece on “What Apple’s New iOS 7 Really Means for Travelers.” I’m upgrading my iPhone to iOS7 as I write this post, and am eagerly looking forward to using the new Location Services to find new travel apps the locals use once I get to Spain next week.
