GR1 - Analysis

Problem Statement

Parents and relatives living apart want to get an experience of what it is like to be at a place where their children/relatives live.

• Experiences are difficult to communicate
  • What is it like to walk around Harvard Square?
  • What is it like to jog along the Charles River?
• What do you do on an average Friday night?
• Textual description/Images/Videos don't give a great idea of what the place is like solely.
