A few years ago, travel felt different.

You’d hear stories from friends.

Find random hidden places online.

Get lost. Explore. Remember things.

Now it feels like we scroll through 500 places a day…

and forget all of them tomorrow.

Everything became optimized for content.

Perfect drone shots.

Perfect captions.

Perfect reels.

But somehow the actual feeling of travel got lost in the process.

We’ve been thinking about this a lot while building something in the travel space.

Not another “content app.”

Not another influencer platform.

Something slower.

More real.

More useful.

Still early. Still testing.

But curious if others feel this too.

I checked my saved folder today.

It’s full of amazing places.

And I’ve barely used any of them.

There’s so much travel content everywhere—

but it rarely turns into an actual plan.

No structure. No flow. No continuity.

Just endless saving.

We’ve been thinking a lot about this while building something around travel…

and honestly, this feels like one of the biggest gaps.

Curious if it’s just me or if others feel the same?

We’ve been thinking a lot about how travel content works today…

There’s no shortage of posts, reels, or recommendations.

But somehow it still feels hard to turn all of that into an actual trip.

So we’ve been exploring this idea of a “second feed” for travel —

something more useful than just scrolling.

Not launching anything yet. Just trying to understand what people actually want.

Everywhere you look, there’s travel content.

Reels. Shorts. Photos. “Top 10 places.”

But somehow… it still doesn’t help you actually plan better trips.

It feels more like entertainment than real discovery.

So we started building something different.

Not just any another app. Not just another content platform.

Think of it more like a second feed —

focused only on real trips, real people, and real places.

Still early. Still testing.

Curious — what do you feel is missing today when it comes to travel apps?
