style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"> \ud83c\udf92 <strong>Slower, intentional journeying: <\/strong>In an era where traditional travel agencies are competing with online agents and AI, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/trinkglobal\/?hl=en\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Trink Global<\/a> has carved out a niche and tapped into a growing global trend; personalized trips, wellness retreats, and slower, more intentional travel. Founded by long-time friends Sara Abou Youssef and Amira Khalil, the company is built on a philosophy that travel should be an immersive, transformative experience \u2014 or, as they prefer to call it, a \u201cjourney.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\"> Building a global vision<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The seeds for Trink were sown in early 2019 during a 40th birthday trip to Sri Lanka. <\/strong>\u201cAmira and I were both passionate about traveling to \u201coff-the-beaten-track\u201d destinations but we realized that this wasn\u2019t the case for many of the women in our group. Some were traveling alone for the first time and really pushing themselves outside their comfort zones. We could also see how that experience was having a positive impact on them,\u201d Abou Youssef told EnterpriseAM. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The duo bonded over an extended stay in Sri Lanka <\/strong>and decided to turn their passion for planning and exploring into a travel business dedicated to slow experience-led travel and the empowerment of women. While established players like <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gazef.com\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Gazef<\/a> and Omar Samra\u2019s <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/wildguanabana.com\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Wild Guanabana<\/a> already existed, they catered to a younger type of adventure traveler.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>By November 2019, Trink was officially in business with their first group trip to Bali.<\/strong> The business had barely found its footing when the world shut down in March 2020. A planned group trip to Brazil was canceled, and their original international outbound model became obsolete overnight. But Abou Youssef still views the pandemic as a \u201cblessing in disguise.\u201d Forced to look inward, Trink pivoted to the domestic market, finding huge demand for local retreats. They organized yoga and art retreats in places like Sidi Heneish on the North Coast, Siwa, Nubia, and Fayoum.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">First-hand and personalized<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The business operates on two main tracks: customized itineraries, and scheduled group trips and retreats.<\/strong> The customization side of the business provides detailed, personalized planning for small groups, families, or honeymooners, where every detail \u2014 from the architectural style of the accommodation to the daily lunch spot \u2014 is matched to the traveler's personality. \u201cWe don\u2019t curate trips for other travel companies, but if you are a yoga instructor or life coach and you would like us to design a retreat for you, that is definitely a service we offer,\u201d says Abou Youssef. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Trink distinguishes itself by focusing on first-hand experiences.<\/strong> They never send clients to destinations they have not personally vetted and at least one of the two founders is always present on each group trip and retreat. \u201cWhen I\u2019m creating an experience for clients, I\u2019m sharing my own experience, as a traveler,\u201d Abou Youssef says. This commitment to authenticity involves deep research, personal trials of local suppliers, and staying updated on the newest venues and restaurants.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">You travel, we think<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>In its early years, Trink was a two-woman operation.<\/strong> Leveraging Khalil\u2019s master\u2019s degree in information systems and a \u201cdo-it-yourself\u201d ethos, they built their own website on WordPress and grew their first 8k social media followers entirely in-house. The only element they outsourced was their branding \u2014 the name \u201cTrink\u201d being a portmanteau of \u201cTravel\u201d and \u201cThink.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>\u201cYou travel, we think,\u201d became their slogan, reflecting their goal of taking people on carefree journeys where all logistics are handled.<\/strong> They were ahead of their time in that regard. According to the BBC\u2019s travel trends in 2026, \u201ctrust over choice,\u201d meaning travel experiences where the guest doesn't have to make any decisions, are clearly on the rise. Also trending is \u201cultra personalized over one-size-fits-all.\u201d <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>This means every trip and every retreat has a theme that is appropriate and culturally relevant for their specific target market:<\/strong> predominantly women in their 40\u2019s and 50\u2019s. While 90-95% of Trink travelers are women, the company does not strictly exclude men, though they are always informed if they will be the sole male in a group of ladies. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>A core challenge of the Trink model is maintaining group chemistry.<\/strong> Every group journey begins with a detailed registration process, and a written concept note to ensure travelers understand the nature of the trip \u2014 whether that involves an eco-lodge or a physical activity. Abou Youssef emphasizes that communication is key to managing expectations. Judging by their 30% repeat customer rate, the formula appears to be working.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">Economic headwinds and AI<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The EGP\u2019s devaluation in 2022 hit the company hard. <\/strong>Rising costs \u2014 such as plane tickets jumping to EGP 30K from EGP 10K \u2014 and credit card restrictions on foreign currency made international bookings a logistical nightmare. Paradoxically, these restrictions also worked in Trink\u2019s favor. When individuals found it impossible to book their own flights or hotels online, they once again turned to travel companies to handle the logistics.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Looking toward the future, Abou Youssef is unbothered by the rise of AI in travel. <\/strong>While she acknowledges that \u201cagentic AI\u201d will eventually replace the transactional side of travel agencies (bookings, visas, and transfers), she believes it can never replace the human element of group experiences. \u201cThe more AI is doing stuff for us, the more people crave connection,\u201d she notes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">What does growth look like?<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Trink Global currently manages 12-18 trips per year to places like Bali, Vietnam, and Salalah in Oman, three popular destinations they have on repeat.<\/strong> Group trips and wellness retreats are also offered to destinations like South Africa, Tanzania, Zanzibar, Vietnam, Cambodia, Mexico and India to name a few.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The business plans to expand to include first-time destinations like Kenya and Peru in 2026. <\/strong>\u201cWe typically try to introduce a couple of new destinations each year. In 2025 we added Uzbekistan and Japan, which is trending so we\u2019re going there again this year,\u201d Abou Youssef says.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The long-term goal for Trink remains true to their name: Global.<\/strong> The founders hope to move beyond the Egyptian market to create a cosmopolitan community of travelers from diverse nationalities. They have already started tapping into the Saudi market by planning retreats with Saudi instructors who bring along their clientele. <\/p>\n\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n    <div class=\"tags-section\">\n        <div class=\"f-graphik\">Tags:<\/div>\n        <div class=\"tags-list\">\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/after-hours-the-business-of-travel\/\">AFTER HOURS: THE BUSINESS OF TRAVEL<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/entrepreneurship\/\">entrepreneurship<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/lifestyle\/\">lifestyle<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/travel\/\">travel<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.story -->\r\n    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"686061 advertiser\" class=\"issue-section enterprise-adv\">\n<div class=\"issue-section__content\">\n<div class=\"stories\">            <!-- Show divider before story section -->\r\n        <div \r\n            class=\"\r\n                            \"\r\n            id=\"686061\">\r\n            \r\n            <div class=\"story__body\">\r\n\r\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2026\/01\/26\/686061\/\">\r\n                    <div class=\"photo photo--above\">\r\n                                            <\/div>\r\n                <\/a>\r\n\r\n                \n<article id=\"post-686061\" class=\"content-area-description single-story post-686061 post type-post status-publish format-standard hentry category-advertiser wpautop entry\">\n\n\t\n\t<div class=\"entry-content\">\n\n\t\t\n\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight:400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mashreq.com\/en\/egypt\/private\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ent.news\/2025\/5\/1134.jpg?ssl=1\"><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.story -->\r\n    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"686062\" class=\"issue-section \">\n<div class=\"issue-section__content\">\n<div class=\"stories\">            <!-- Show divider before story section -->\r\n        <div \r\n            class=\"\r\n                story-section            \"\r\n            id=\"686062\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">3<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">Ears to the Ground<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2026\/01\/26\/thinking-about-socialism-start-with-this-podcast\/\">\r\n                            Thinking about socialism?

Host Vivek Chibber sits at the helm of Jacobin\u2019s newest podcast <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/jacobin.com\/2024\/12\/confronting-capitalism-vivek-chibber-podcast\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Confronting Capitalism<\/a>, seeking to help listeners understand capitalism at its core and become better equipped with effective socialist politics. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>You can\u2019t change a system you don\u2019t understand<\/strong><strong>.<\/strong> The podcast gives you the conceptual framework and historical context behind how capitalism functions around the globe, discussing policies, history, political economy, and strategy. With a system as ever-present and deeply entrenched as capitalism, it feels essential to have a tight grasp on how it\u2019s running our world, especially in its more covert ways.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>In several episodes, social democracy takes the spotlight as Chibber and co-host Melissa Naschek unpack its origins and precedence in different regions and eras.<\/strong> When capitalism was strongly associated with fascism, particularly Nazism, the social democrats pushed to reform the system and keep the interests of the people at the forefront \u2014 even as more radical groups wanted to overthrow it altogether. The ultimate product of the phenomenon was the modern welfare state which Chibber describes as the \u201cgift given by social democracy to the laboring party.\u201d <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Beyond ideological breakdowns, the podcast also hosts special analysis episodes on major events making headlines.<\/strong> From the coup in Venezuela, the conflict in Iran, and Trump\u2019s waning popular appeal, Chibber takes a more theory-heavy and wide-angled lens to discuss current events. Tune into a couple of episodes and this podcast might just be your gateway to the world of leftist thought.<\/p>\n<p
