Skyscanner Appoints Anunay Sood Everywhere Agent of India
Travelling is more than just booking a ticket and finding a hotel to stay; you aren’t really travelling if you’re not exploring hidden spots and embracing the unexpected. To guide travelers through this exhilarating experience, Skyscanner has introduced the Everywhere Agency, a virtual pop-up travel consultancy with world record-breaking travelers ready to share their global insights. Among them is Anunay Sood, the Everywhere Agent for India.
Anunay and the other Everywhere Agents are appointed to help demystify apprehensions about unfamiliar destinations and empower travelers to explore off-the-beaten-path locations. Their mission is to turn every journey into an adventure, ensuring that every traveler, whether seasoned or novice, can curate unforgettable experiences.
As his bio on the Skyscanner portal says, “Having travelled to over 30 countries, Anunay is an Indian travel influencer and entrepreneur whose love for travel shines through his social media channels as he shares captivating highlights from his adventures. Recently honoured as the Travel Influencer of the Year at the Exhibit Awards, he has been invited as a guest on various TV shows and featured in Forbes India.” So, who better than him to spill the beans on travel tips for India and beyond?
Other Everywhere Agents appointed by Skyscanner are Rachel Davey and Martina Sebova, Gunnar Garfors, Basanth Sadasivan and Renee Bruns. While each one of these avid travelers bring their own takes to this, Renee Bruns is especially motivating as a full-time wheelchair user who has navigated the difficulties of travel despite this.
Post Covid, travel is at an all-time high and Indians have been taking more trips (both domestic and international) than ever before. According to the Travel Trends report for 2024 released by Skyscanner, cultural exploration in particular will be a priority for travelers this year. Having access to these globetrotters through Everywhere will make it much easier for anyone looking for ways to make the most of their travels. The report also shared that for Indian travelers, “knowing how or where to communicate with their group (43%), struggling to decide on the destination (52%) or dates (48%), and agreeing on cost (45%) are the most common reasons for avoiding group excursions.” So, if you’ve been waiting for that trip to make it out of the group chat, Everywhere Agents might be just what you need.
According to the travel trend report, these are the top destinations for Indians in 2024:
- Da Nang, Vietnam
- Almaty, Kazakhstan
- Baku, Azerbaijan
- Osaka, Japan
- Hanoi, Vietnam
- Krabi, Thailand
- Budapest, Hungary
- Mahe Island, Seychelles
- Auckland, New Zealand
- Vienna, Austria
Anunay Sood’s Instagram and YouTube accounts have been a go-to guide for travelers for quite some time, as evident by his 1.1 million followers and 300k+ subscribers. If you want to explore the world through the eyes of a seasoned traveler, Sood is now part of the Skyscanner collective dedicated to help Indians discover the beautiful destinations within India and beyond.
