I made a small tool where I and my wife can send receipt photos, ask in text to create events or send poster of an event from Telegram and it directly sync it to my Google family calendar.

Since last month, I'm still working on https://www.campinjapan.com/

I had a few customers for custom trip planning for vanlife in Japan. It does not pay the bills yet and the biggest pain point is to send people in an adventure sleeping in remote spots. I refused 50% of customer so far (based on early conversation) because I wasn't too confortable sending young and noisy people in the spots I usually go to enjoy myself knowing that there are local people (often volunteering) to clean the public spaces..

I also added a section for people to post their second hand vehicles, more articles and a "plus" plan to access previously created custom plans..

Little by little doing some progress in this niche..

A complete guide on how to travel or live by van in Japan. Additionally trying to turn my passion into a revenue by offering tourists custom handcrafted plans for them to travel.

This is a fun side project as I learn great with email communication, culture differences (as a dev)

looks great but their website makes it challenging to get started. Should just have a big play button on top...

Your projects are awesome anvaka! Please continue doing those!
Nice but advertisement is violent :D
This is awesome! I want more in Europe as I love Pinball! I'll add the one I know tomorrow (especially there is a nice pinball museum in Rotterdam, NL)

For the maps feature I'll be happy to discuss with you using https://dokomaps.com we're making a platform for anyone to create communities of place sharing!

If you're visiting Ghent I just did again yesterday and made a list of my favorite places: https://dokomaps.com/map/381/the-medieval-city-of-ghent-belg...
Re:Show HN: Organize, share and discover lists of favorite places on Wednesday December 04, 2019 @02:37AM (#21700332)
While living abroad in Japan I always had family and friends asking for recommendations on where and what to visit when they went to Japan. As I was tired of always writing the same list over email, chat, phone... I decided to create a tool to easily map my recommendations and share it for free.

The result is https://dokomaps.com

What is nice compared to other similar services is that on DokoMaps you can also browse created by other travelers to inspire your next travel.

If you're interested you can create your own map and let me know if you have any feedback!

Nice tool! Could also be used for data science ;)

https://dokomaps.com is a more human and user friendly alternative were locals create their own map, add comment and categories and share them.

Re:Bulma: A CSS framework to consider on Thursday February 01, 2018 @01:38AM (#16280005)
I use Bulma CSS for starting my projects and it's awesome! Was a Bootstrap guy before but I find Bulma more easy and sexier.
Awesome work ;)
