- [Our Story](https://be-local.travel/our-story/): Why Be Local Exists Be Local story began with a growing feeling that travel had become increasingly good at showing us places and increasingly poor at allowing us to experience them. linkedin We wanted to move in the opposite direction.

And where returning home slightly changed matters more than returning home having seen everything, that idea became Be Local.
