We decided to build the best possible overview of your travels. See how many countries you have visited. See where in those countries you have been. Get recommendations of where to go next. Keep it to yourself or share it with friends.

Looks really slick! I wanted to build an app like that a decade ago :) You did a better job! What is your monetization? Also a recommendation - be able to click on the globe to pick a visited country. I find it strange to only be able to write a place and then it would appear.

@lenikirilov hi Leni, thanks for the praise and warm welcome to Humbo! We’re not earning money on Humbo. It’s a hobby project of three friends for now 🙂 This is why you rate places to create your map: When I see a map of countries my friend has been to, it's interesting, but I always want to know more. "You've been to France! Where, how did you like it? How was the food?". I think seeing this (places tab) makes the map more interesting. And in the long run, everyone benefits from the ratings through recommendations for where to go next.

congratulations on the launch of visited by humbo, anders, jensa, and uyen. tallying over 7,000 lines of code is no small feat. regarding the recommendation feature, how does the algorithm determine the next best places to visit based on previous travels? keen to see how it enhances user experience.

@mashy Thanks! Currently, the recommendations are pretty basic, we match manually curated lists of places with places you have visited. For example, if you have been to 5 of the best food cities in the world, you might enjoy more top food cities. We have ideas of how to develop this step by step though to make recommendations even better.

🧐 Good find
This is a fantastic idea to have an overview of all your trips. I believe this project has the potential to become the Facebook of world travelers, connecting individuals who have visited the same places. However, one thing that strikes me as extremely odd is that on this link: https://humbo.com/it/taormina?at..., there is a post about Taormina/Isola Bella in Italy. I have visited this location myself, and I can confirm without a doubt that some of the images are simply random and do not match this specific location 😅😂🤣 For example, these images: I am unsure if there is an issue with your algorithm or if these posts are from other users. In any case, they are completely misplaced.

@g_briel Hi Gabriel, welcome to Humbo and thank you for the feedback! I looked into the misplaced images for Isola Bella and found the problem. There are two Isola Bellas in Italy, and the images you found are from Isola Bella on Lago Maggiore in Northern Italy (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Is...), not from Isola Bella in Taormina. Thanks a lot for pointing this out! I updated the images now.
