Gopackup Inc. is Innovating the Way People Travel

SANTA CLARA, Calif, September 4, 2017 (Newswire.com) - Even with constant communication and knowledge shared through social media, it is difficult for people to see past the surface level of a place when they travel. Gopackup Inc. has discovered a way to solve this issue, by directly connecting travelers to locals. This innovative way of travel is a way to see the real side of a city/town; the way the local people live, the food they eat, the sites they show their friends when they visit from other places.

Now at Gopackup.com, people can book a tour called SHADES TOURS: guided by homeless people. An estimated 10,000 inhabitants of Vienna are considered to live in a feasibility situation, of which 2,000 live on the street. This tour currently on Gopackup’s website brings a new way for people to travel while at the same time, helping the homeless.

From now on we see homelessness from another point of view and the best thing about this project is that it helps homeless people to get out of this situation.
