How to use Baraaza

The primary goal of Baraaza is to provide a space where travelers can easily find quality, relevant information about any destination on the planet. We do that by offering a forum where members can share their knowledge and post information & reviews on any destination in the world.

The concept of Baraaza is simple, and we tried to make the site simple & easy to navigate as well – I feel that’s one of the things that make us different than other sites. This site was laid out by someone who knows what kind of information is important to world travelers and who also feels it’s important to keep a record of some of the cool places we are fortunate enough to visit.

Here’s how I use Baraaza:
1. First off, I use it to keep track of all the destinations in the world that I have visited. It’s partly egotistical and part functional. The Destinations Visited tab in the My Profile section of the site has a world map that you can virtually stick pins into. Underneath the map is a counter of destinations and countries that I have visited. Currently I have visited 97 destinations in 20 countries.
2. Often friends of mine ask me for recommendations on places to stay, places to go, where to party, or eat, and things to do for various destinations I have visited. One thing I noticed is it doesn’t take long for me to forget some of the more important details like hotel names, contact names, dive company names, etc - so now I keep track of all this information on Baraaza. For every destination I visit I fill out a simple Destination Review Form and share it with all who are interested.
3. I like photography and sharing my photos so I use Baraaza to show my destination specific photos.

This site is for you, the world traveler, so if you have any comments or suggestion on how to make it better we definitely want to hear from you.
