The heritage-travel trend just got easier for you to try, thanks to Airbnb and 23andMe - Well and Good
Heritage travel is the latest jet-setting trend you’ll want to add to your bucket list. Jetting off to another country to meet distant relatives or simply explore your family’s history is a great way to make those stories you heard growing up really come to life. In the past, these trips were something you researched and booked yourself. But now, Airbnb and 23andMe are teaming up to make the process so much easier.
According to Airbnb, interest in heritage travel is on the rise, with a 500 percent increase in travelers using the service to trace their roots since 2014. Working with 23andMe, Airbnb’s hope is to make it even easier for you to “travel the world based on your DNA.”
