 Hi, new here, but the app feels pretty cool, looking forward to connecting with awesome people! 
 Welcome! Glad you're liking it so far. Are you actually in Georgia right now? I'm just outside of Kutaisi right now. 
 Kenny here, creator of Trip Hopping, I hope everyone is enjoying it. I'd love some help to improve this from fellow travelers, designers, coders, researchers, and anyone with an inkling to make things better. I've most recently gotten the "go live" feature working well, it's nice to see people on the map. I've also begun integrating with Nostr, which is a decentralized protocol which allows for all kinds of unique interoperability. The Android app is being tested and nearing a public release, and there are so many more features waiting to come alive.

So, a "brew" later this year would be great, just a gathering of folks down to improve the site. Arizona is a front-runner for the location, but it really could be anywhere. I'm just leaving this note here for anyone who wants to reply or contact me directly. Even if you can't join the Brew in-person you could still make a big difference. But also we'll literally be brewing beer, so... you might wanna be there.

Thanks Hoppers! 
 Which Georgia? 
 Good point, the country next to Turkey and Armenia. 
 I'm here in Georgia at least another couple weeks, possibly longer if I continue enjoying it. Anyone have suggestions on the best hikes that result in high up awesome views? I'm also on the lookout for amazing beer, so send any microbrewery tips my way. Good times! 
 I dunno, I'm just thinking of places to travel. What do you think? 
 Right 
 Flutter or React Native?

We're gonna drop our experimental nostr-map prototype and build a new a... 
 Flutter! 
 Hello, Nostr! It is me again.
