Thanks to the internet and technology, international travel has been made a lot easier when compared to 20 years ago. These days, you can plan your travel for anywhere in the world by using a mobile phone and a credit/debit card. You don’t need to waste a piece of paper for printing the tickets as you can simply show the e-ticket in your phone at the airport. There is no doubt that the online travel websites like Tripadvisor, Expedia, Priceline etc offer attractive discounts for booking hotels and flights. But, they do they provide enough information like that by a local? Sadly Not. Thiskind of websites provide a lot of information about the tourist destination in the form of reviews, sightseeing places, restaurants etc but lacks the option of personalization. Can’t understand? Let me explain with an example.

Let assume that you are traveling to a city named Hyderabad in India. You read in a travel blog that you can buy original and high-quality pearls in Hyderabad. So, you have decided to buy a nice pearl necklace for your spouse as a gift. But, you don’t know any trusted dealer from whom you can buy pearls. Can you ask the customer support of Tripadvisor? No. Of course, you can ask your question in the forum and wait for someone else to give the answer. Also, you can’t expect a friend or relatives in every country. How to overcome this limitation with the existing travel websites?

CoolCousin (CC) provides an innovative solution by directly connecting the traveler with a local for theexchange of information and another kind of services. CC platform is based on the blockchain technology and it uses Ethereum based smart contracts for all kind of transactions in the platform. Using the platform, the traveler can easily connect with any number of locals called “Cousins” to get information or any other service based on their need. For every tourist destination, the platform lists all the available cousins. Then the traveler has the option of filtering them by age, photos, gender etc and choose the one based on their wish. A traveler can choose as many number of cousins as they want. Each cousin will have their own profile and city guide. Sounds interesting? Check out https://www.coolcousin.com/ico/coolcousin-whitepaper.pdf to learn more information about the CC platform.

The iOS version of the CoolCousin is already available in the Appstore. CC platform is also available as theweb version. Till date, the platform has more than 1000 cousins in 60+ cities all around the world.

CUZ tokens are based on ERC20 and will be available for sale during the ICO (Initial Coin Offering) of the company. Travelers can use the CUZ tokens to get the services of the cousins.

Founded as an antidote to the growing frustration experienced when trying to discover relevant places and activities in a new city, Cool Cousin directly connects travelers to like-minded locals - aka Cousins - for an open and unbiased exchange of treasured local knowledge. Using the service, travelers can search through a list of Cousins in over 65 destinations, and find those who are the right fit for them. Each Cousin has a distinct guide to their city with their favorite neighborhood spots and local businesses, available online and offline. Travelers searching for something specific, like cheap tickets to a football match or a nearby bar hosting a cool local band, can also reach out to their Cousins directly for personal on-demand assistance.

When you travel, you loose time because you don't have the knowledge as the locals, it's always better when you have a friend in the city you visit (I remembered good times in Tokyo with a friend working there). Cool Cousin is the perfect app to travel. The other good point is the app is operational with more than 500K users worldwide in 65 cities... Many articles on newspapers (NY Times, GQ, Mashable, National Geographic...), it looks pretty serious. Thank for sharing this ICO.

Cool Cousin is the easiest and funnest (it’s a word) way to find unique places you’ll love in cities around the world.

It’s pretty simple – connect with locals who share your interests — aka Cousins — and get a map of their favorite city spots and personalized advice about how to spend your time and your dime in their town.

With Cool Cousin, you’re just two finger taps away from getting good recommendations from someone you can trust, avoiding wasted hours navigating through too much information online. When you have a Cool Cousin, FOMO is NOMO (yes, we have copywriting skills and we’re not afraid to use them).

well information in blockchain keep it up

Hi! to be honest I have some difficulty understanding things. I love the concept of CC as it encourages locals to give advice and insights that can not be found on other commercial platforms. HOWEVER, I see a bit of a gap. In my mind the company's ICO might bring a lot of value to the company and its owners as it will be a great way to get funded. Having said that, I do not see the value for the users. The platform already consists of 500K users (supposedly) with only 1000 locals catering to the needs of those users. How will it be beneficial to the users if they now have to pay locals for their advice? And why was this done through a crypto token and not through any other conventional currency? What it the end benefit of the blockchain, and how is this different from a simple monetisation approach where travellers pay users and CC gets a commission?

I agree with you that internet made the world smaller and we can do any works very easily for this success of science and technology and i also appreciate to your post....
