Google-y Eyes

Virtual this, virtual that. In the past few months, especially for those of us in the travel industry, virtual is the buzzword that all our hopes have decided to cling on to. And Google cardboard opens up a realm of possibilities using a six-inch screen and some good ole&rsquo cardboard. Gather some cardboard (yes, pizza boxes are acceptable too), magnets, loop fasteners, hooks and elastic bands and let Google teach you how to DIY a viewer.

Go crazy on decorations (googly eyes, glitter, stickers and such) or if you don&rsquot wish to put in any effort at all, buy one of the many Google cardboard-certified viewers and you are ready to start. Whether you pair your headset with cardboard or the numerous other apps like titans of space, sites in VR or roller coaster 360, you are definitely in for a treat.

Visit new destinations, build worlds from scratch, run through a maze looking for treasure or even fly through space...the possibilities are endless. Google cardboard is available on both Android and iOS devices.
