I think for us, the most tiring and time consuming part of longer term travelling is:

- Planning the number of days in a city

- Planning which city to visit

- Planning the transport between the cities

Why?

- We are bound to a return time

- We want to be as cheap as possible

- We want to visit everything that is possible

So if you are planning to do what we are doing, expect to spend considerable amount of time on organization during your trip.

We also plan to make an app though, to ease this work, because damn, this is hard.

That would be interesting. I've used Road Trippers but the use case seems to be different

What would be the usecase for Road Trippers.

Road Trippers I've used more to help find interesting things along the way. Making scheduled breaks at a scenic gorge vs just a gas station

would this app idea essentially be a database with a bunch of filters to narrow results?

More like an on-demand live search collecting data from multiple sources like we do for ourselves. Then an algorithm to create an itinary.

sounds cool! I'd definitely be interested in checking it out

Cool, thanks. We will let you know. We are still travelling, so cant make it now. But in a month.

By the way, would you be interested helping to shape the first form of the app with your opinion? We are travelling for 6 month, so have a strong idea about it, but still would be open to hear other people`s opinion about it.
