Technology Changing the Way We Travel in 21st Century

It is now but a faint memory of getting up early just to stand in long queues at a railway ticket counter or paying hefty commission to some travel agent to get an air ticket. Ah! Old Days! But nobody really gets nostalgic to that experience, we are blessed to have internet, mobiles, tablets, apps, websites, and all the wonders of technology that has made our travelling experience holistically convenient.

There is a famous quote by Greg Anderson, “Focus on the journey, not the destination. Joy is found not in finishing an activity but in doing it”. Well, this is quite true in most of the cases, even for holidays. We all pretty much agree to the fact that planning a vacation is equally fun than reaching the holiday destination. There is so much of ground work is required for a perfect vacation, from the mode of transportation, hotels to stay, places to see, clothes to buy, shoes to fit into, fresh air to breathe or unlocking peace of ocean waves, everything associated with a holiday is exquisite.
