We build in an order, and the order isn’t arbitrary: each phase depends on the last one actually working. Here’s what’s on the table and roughly when.
Nothing here is a promise with a date on it. It's the order we think things have to happen in.
The catalogue you can explore three ways, guides built on the three levels, the practical layer, your own space for saved trips, and the emails that follow your real dates. This is the part that has to work before anything else is worth building.
Somewhere travellers share what actually happened once they're back — what worked, what they'd change — and a place to ask before, during and after. Fed partly by the trips people choose to make public from their own profile. This is what gives you a reason to come back when you've no trip planned.
Curated places to stay inside each guide. Local guides as an optional extra, arranged directly between you and them. And, further out, yoga retreats and then other things — surfing, hiking — which is a natural extension of where we came from.
Japan is first, because it's where we have the most real material behind us. After that, roughly in this direction:
Within Japan, a second plan is already obvious: the country off the classic route — Kawaguchiko, Shikoku, Kanazawa — which is exactly what the search-by-plan structure was built for.
Shorter, cheaper, and organised on exactly the same logic as the long trips — by the kind of trip you want, not by the city.
