What will Traveling be Like in 50 Years

If we go back some 50 years and think about traveling at that time, it was more of either luxury or difficulty. Yes, we have had airplanes and other modes of transport since quite a few years now. It was easy and luxurious for the rich frequent traveler but a lay man found it to be extremely difficult. Why was that, because there was very little information available for a regular man.

Traveling has been becoming easier by the day and more people are willing to travel. It is changing from luxury to lifestyle with many low budget options available with all the information one needs. Travel will evolve and change in the years to come. It is fun to predict the future so let’s foresee how traveling will be like in the next 50 years.

There will be more to explore

People want to explore the world and are looking for programs to facilitate them. Just like traveling is increasing in general, the most remote areas that have not yet been explored or are in the initial phase of becoming a tourist spot, will increase in popularity.

Online information and reviews

With the e-commerce world growing, people will rely more on the information that is available online. There will be no agent or third party that will involve in planning your journey but you will be ahead of this. Even today, platforms like Jovago.comhave introduced a free gateway for people to choose their accommodation from thousands of options. This will expand exponentially in the coming years.

Increased budget friendly options

As the demand will increase, so will the supply. There will be more options that are low on budget as well as provide comfort. Increased competition on travel routes will encourage airlines to improve experience and decrease rates. To facilitate paperless travel, smartphone apps will be widely used like SkyScanner app, Careem app and Jovago app.

What else can we say, there is already a kind of restaurant that is based in the air, and we might have more of such restaurants or hotels in the near future. Passports might become obsolete, car trips may become air trips with cars having wings, and what not. What do you think about the future of traveling?

Myths About Traveling Within Pakistan

Pakistan is probably one of the most misjudged countries in the world. Most people fail to see what lies underneath the media reportage stressing on the challenges facing the country today. Not only outsiders but local Pakistanis also have created a pre notion of traveling within Pakistan as risky. If you are also one of those who think many times before planning your trip to explore Pakistan, this article is just for you.

There are quite a lot of myths attached to traveling within Pakistan. Keep reading to find the list of these misconceptions and the realities of travel and tourism in Pakistan.

1. There is nothing to see/do for a tourist

Pakistan is rich in high mountains, spectacular valleys surrounded by beautiful lakes, historical monuments and places, attractive hill stations and much more. Apart from the immense natural beauty, there are severalman made attractions like Patriata, Hingol National park and Khewra salt mines. Before you plan to head out to foreign countries, you must explore your country first instead of believing in the false fact that Pakistan has nothing in it for a tourist.

2. Pakistani people are hostile

We sometimes mistake to love our hometown/city more than our country and start comparing. We believe that people from a certain city are unwelcoming while we are the most hospitable people ever. Foreigners believe that Pakistanis are unwelcoming and aggressive. We need to acknowledge the fact that we are more than welcoming and we treat our guests very well. People throughout the country are true Pakistanis and we may differ in ethnicities, we are very much similar in several ways.

3. Pakistan is an unsafe and dirty land

Just because we have been the target terrorism a few times, people have associated Pakistan and its people as terrorists. If we were terrorists, we would harm others instead of our own homeland. You can most definitely travel freely in any area of the country. We are a country that facilitate and welcome tourists/travelers with an open and happy heart. Pakistan only lacks proper infrastructure which will be catered to very soon. It’s not dirty but beautiful like anything.

Apart from these myths that are absolutely not true, Pakistan has so much more to give to its people and tourists. Explore the beautiful spots, try the wide variety of Pakistani food, discover different cultures of the country and get a hang of the bounties that our country is blessed with. Be proud of your country and support tourism in Pakistan.

Surprise Your Spouse This Valentine’s Day

Dedicate the day to surprises

You can never go wrong with surprises.

Take care of their work

Your spouse would love to hear the sentence, ‘you should take rest while I take care of your work’. Do their chores yourself and let them feel special. You are basically giving them a day off from their duties and nothing would be more special to get that leave from your loving partner.

Turn the house into a love zone

Some people don’t like going out but spending a warm and cozy day at home with no one else but their partner. This is your best opportunity to turn your house into a love zone. Decorate the house in red hearts. You can do this by using heart shaped cushions, scented candles, print your favorite pictures together, cut in a heart shape and hang them, play romantic music and enjoy the day.

Plan a surprise trip

This idea will definitely be a hit. For a couple, the best way to spend quality time together is to go on a vacation.
