Virtual Vacation
Interactive armchair travel portal offering virtual walking tours, driving cameras, flight simulations, and geography guessing games worldwide.
WindowSwap is a viral digital travel portal created by Sonali Ranjit and Vaishnav Balasubramaniam during pandemic lockdowns. By clicking a single button, users are transported to a random, unedited, 10-minute HD video loop recorded from the window of a stranger somewhere in the world—accompanied by ambient natural audio of rain, birds, and distant city murmurs.

- Curated Community Contributions: Anyone worldwide can record and submit a steady 10-minute view from their own bedroom or balcony window.
- Zen & Focus Mode: Popular companion for deep focus, studying, relaxation, and remote work background ambiance.
