6. Brian Chesky, CEO of Airbnb, predicts that after the
pandemic, there's going to be a big change in the
reason people travel: They will be traveling for fun,
not for work.
Previously, people have travelled for work and
entertained themselves on screen. That's a pattern he
predicts is about to invert.
There could also be a rise in people choosing to live
as digital nomads because they won't be tied to one
city for their job.
