Cool cousin is a travel app which aims to optimize its services for the millennials and generation next travelers. Launched in 2016, this has been recognized by various publications including New York Times and Guardian.
How does it work?
Cool cousin is a mobile app, completely free of cost which is available in both IOS and Android. It lets you find accurate travel information through the means of interaction with the network of cousins — Local experts capable of answering questions about a particular destination you are likely to visit. It is designed for making travel more convenient.
Cool cousin will let you post any type of question you have in mind about that country. After you post a question, it lets you interact with a cousin. After you’ve connected, you can directly reach out to that “cousin” for personal guidance and recommendations. You can ask questions like restaurant recommendations, Places to see, climate and other things. The app is equal to carrying a cousin along with you. The cousins can be tipped with ‘CUZ’ tokens which can later be exchanged with other crypto currencies or traded on exchanges.
Features
• Unbiased — Cool cousin offers unbiased service by guarding the information of the users on blockchain technology.
• Autonomous — Each contributor in Cool cousin has their own profile where they can monitor the quality and share their experiences with other users as “cousins”
• Cuz Tokens — It is the cryptocurrency that Cool cousin is working on. Through cuz and blockchain technology, travellers can get a diverse range of services. Cuz is a part of reward engine which encourages participation.
• Pro-cousin — As cousins answer more and more questions, they tend to become pro-cousins which enable them to send or receive payments in CUZ tokens.
Before heading to a new place, we often tend to research about it on the internet. Most times, there seems to be an information overload and we end up making wrong conclusions. Cool cousin solves this problem by giving a reliable source of information and a more efficient travel experience.
You can ask questions similar to these and expect reliable answers:
“I’m planning to visit Spain, What would be the best time?”
“Hola! I’ve got an eight-hour layover at Delhi, Any suggestions on must-see places?”
Or if you’re about to book flights,
“About to book tickets from Mumbai to Los-Angeles, any recommendations on the best route and airlines?”
Overall, Cool cousin will give you refined research about the place through the “cousin” version of a travel agent.
Conclusion
To sum it up, this application will give you an experience of having a cool cousin in every city you visit, whom you can rely on for the best information and make your travel more memorable. It indeed would be handy for young minds that rely on smartphones and want customized travel information that is highly reliable.

A good review @eyox. Thanks for the follow. Will sure look out for your posts. What about the team at coolcousin?
There is a team of 17 people advertised in the website and 15 advisors (seems a lot!)

I wouldnt say it's the greatest team in terms of experience but still a good big size team (the last thing you want is 5 people working on an ICO)
