The person behind the guides
I moved to Germany a few years ago and spent my first months drowning in paperwork and confusing everything. TripGuidr started as my private notes file from trip planning, restaurant lists, transit hacks, real opening hours, things travel blogs always seem to forget. The site is that notes file, cleaned up and published.
