Dave and Jaylynne explore the world — where we’ve been, and where we’re headed
Every trip on the map — the ones in the books and the ones still being dreamed up — with the stops, dates, and notes for each. Family, this is the easiest way to keep up with us. Map © OpenStreetMap contributors.

Every trip, one calendar
The whole plan at a glance — flip between a day-by-day month and a year view where each trip runs as a color-coded span. A trip tucked behind a code shows up only as a marker on the day it starts.
Where to be, month by month
The planning layer for slow travel: pick a month and the world sorts itself into where to go, where works, and where to steer clear of — weather, burning and monsoon seasons, hurricanes, crowds and prices all folded in. Tap a dot or a region card for its whole year.

The bucket list
The dream list — places we keep coming back to that aren’t trips yet. No dates, no bookings; when one turns into a real trip, it moves over to Planned Trips.
