Connecting Curious Travelers with Micro-Entrepreneurs in Emerging Economies Around the World
Vayando is an online social enterprise marketplace that connects curious travelers with micro-entrepreneurs in emerging economies around the world. We provide a platform for micro-entrepreneurs that have interest and motivation in sharing local activities, experience, and skills to market and connect directly with curious travelers visiting their areas. Travelers browse through profiles in the country they are traveling and book to spend a day with these individuals, or the cooperatives they are members of. All the entrepreneur needs is a basic cell phone to confirm and manage bookings. Travelers get a secure local experience while entrepreneurs gain opportunity to build their small business or livelihood.
