Land will be cheap, as most of the ground services will be in Sharing Economy
With the global economic downturn and increasing trust of the Internet, there has been a major shift towards access of goods over ownership of them. The travel industry is the sector most affected by the growth of sharing and collaborative consumption. This trends drives customers toward the sharing economy, especially for accommodation and ground transport.
Thanks to our partnership with communities in various sectors – Accommodation / Food / Transport / Work, we created the first ever Round the World Tour in Sharing Economy. A trip for travelers 3.0! Designed by Francesca Antoci
