Sometimes you want to get away but even though you might have some strict guidelines as to what you want to do, you don't know where you want to go; enter Nightswapping, a reversed travel search engine. It takes your city of departure -- among some other information -- and provides great options to act on.
It might seem like a simple enough concept, but it's one that hasn't been put into play properly yet. Until now. Through Nightswapping's reversed travel search engine, people will be provided with a list of weekend destinations and places to stay with local hosts. It's almost like a more refined version of Airbnb, aside from the fact that it all originates from a vague starting point.
