Reimagining natural travel discovery.

Context & Problem Definition

Planning a trip is overwhelming, even though travel is exciting. Gen Z travelers need a quick way to validate recommendations and expand their perspectives. Exclusive short-form travel content can make trip planning easier and more engaging.
Short-form content is rich in information and helps build trust in recommendations but lacks easy ways to extract key details
Group chats are common for trip planning but are often too disorganized and lack a central hub for trip info
There’s no quick way to reference and share past experiences on your own travels

Problem

Fragmented booking platforms, diverse preferences, and overwhelming reviews make travel planning and discovery complex
Current work for the project from branding to wireframing screens, zoomed out.
