Resurrected a new years eve tradition of building something new (blog post here if you're interested: https://blog.jennvargas.com/introducing-wanderling-%EF%B8%8F...)

My goal was to build a location-organized hub to surface all of the great travel content out there sourced from user submissions a la product hunt, reddit, etc.

Happy to answer any questions!

How are you sourcing the travel guides? Manual submission or scraping?

Nice work though!

Thanks! A bit of both for the initial population. Shooting for it to be 100% user-submitted, though.
