Why a travel calendar beats a travel map

Pin maps are a classic way to show off your travels. But a map hides half the story. A calendar shows the other half.

A map shows where. A calendar shows when.

On a map, a weekend trip and a two-month backpacking adventure are both a single pin. On a calendar, one is two colored days and the other fills a whole season. Time is what makes travel feel big or small.

You see the rhythm of your year

Did you travel every month or save it all for summer? Was there a long stretch at home in the middle? A calendar makes the rhythm obvious, and it's often surprising.

Trips fit around real life

Seeing trips next to ordinary days, birthdays and busy work weeks makes your year feel complete. Your travel isn't separate from your life; it's part of it.

Journeys count too

Flights and train rides sit on the exact day they happened. A year with twelve train rides looks very different from a year with two long-haul flights, even if the pins are similar.

Make your own

Year Edition turns your trips into color-coded ranges of days, puts your photos on the days they were taken, and lets you share the whole year as one image or one link.
