(Entertainment-NewsWire.com, September 07, 2012 ) Wan Chai, Hong Kong -- Travel to Asian countries has been on the rise in recent years. Whether it be for business, vacation or even for temporary living situations such as being an au pair or English instructor, there’s no doubt that Asian travel is booming.
OrientFriendFinder.com has created a way for travelers to Asia, or even just people curious in Asian culture to become part of an online community of residents of Asian countries. The website offers users the opportunity to create relationships with people from all over the world.
According to Dominic Penaloza, the CEO of OrientFriendFinder.com, the advantages to the website are vast. Penaloza says users are able to connect with people throughout the world, and expand their social horizons. They create a pen pal type of relationship with someone from across the world, which is a great way to increase foreign language skills, learn more about a different part of the world, or just build a friendship with someone who offers a unique world view.
Recently, the site, building on its success, developed an area specifically dedicated to travelers. The goal of the traveling aspect of the website is to help travelers build relationships prior to travel, and upon arrival in a foreign country the traveler will have access to a local friend that can introduce them to true traditions and food, act as a tour guide or just give them a taste for local flair and culture.
“Since OrientFriendFinder’ inception, so many members have written thank you notes to OrientFriendFinder for helping them find great new friends during travels to new places. With this new Trips feature, we make it easier than ever for both sides to meet. We’re very excited to see 2,000 trips in the first two weeks; this encourages us to keep expanding the travel dimension of OrientFriendFinder” said Dominic Penaloza, founder and CEO of OrientFriendFinder.com.
According to Penaloza, using OrientFriendFinder.com is the best way to get the most of your trip, because you have the opportunity to get rare local insight that is nearly impossible to come by if you’re traveling on your own in a foreign and exotic country. Registration is simple and can be completed in just a few minutes http://www.orientfriendfinder.com/registration.jhtml.
“You’re going to get not only the joy that comes from meeting a new friend and building a solid relationship, but you’re also going to get to experience your travels through the eyes of the person who lives the experiences day-to-day,” said Penaloza. “It really is a rare thing to be able to have access to people around the world that are interested in sharing their experiences and their customs and it makes travel not only easier, but also more enjoyable and fulfilling.”
