Los Angeles, CA (PRUnderground) June 15th, 2018
If you are tired of scrolling and researching your next vacation spot, GLYD is for you. The newly-launched travel app opens you to global possibilities through the eyes of locals. You may browse popular destination spots or discover hidden gems. Users can also request itineraries created by locals and other users. You have the option to hire a GLYDr to give you a life-changing experience. GLYD is the app that goes beyond visiting a city and allows you to become part of the community.
“When you connect with people in a foreign city you feel like you belong there. You belong in that community and city,” Bhasin said. “I look at travel as two different things. There’s actual physical travel of going to a different place. There is also the aspect of traveling through the eyes of others,” Bhasin continued. GLYDrs offer an authentic way to travel and a way around language barriers whether you choose to use in-app messaging to connect or meet in person.
Launching in Southeast Asia is the perfect place with its rich culture, various languages, savory food and enchanting people. GLYD is available in the APP store and Google Play and can be used on both Android and iPhone.
