Although Twitter and Instagram are littered with photos of peoples holidays, there is now an app where you can literally travel the world from the comfort of your own bedroom.
This wonderful new app called Trip allows people to post pictures and stories about their trips and then share them publicly to all users. Members are able to search for certain destinations and results are posted in a similar manner to that of Instagram, allowing anyone to like your photos, share and comment.
Trips also allows people to post advice about a certain destination, provide city guides and maps. The discover button allows the user to search for destinations under categories like "Adventure" or "Wildlife and nature".
This app is an updated and improved version of Lonely Planet's Guides which only gives advice and maps to its users. Trips allows the best of Guides and sharing content available in one app. It is available for free on iOS and will be available on Android soon.
One step better would allow us to travel anywhere via virtual reality – none of the cost, all of the experience!
