City notes that actually come in handy on the road.

A personal travel diary, not a "10 places you must see" tourist ranking. City notes are what I'd actually find useful myself the next time I go back: the route, where to stay, what to eat, and what to pay attention to first.

The same structure for every city: how to get into town (with specific modes of transport, prices, and links to buy tickets), what to see, where to spend the night, where to eat — and separately, everything that didn't fit those categories. Plus photos, and if I filmed a trip video, it's here too.

Sergejs Jakubovskis. I build the site myself — from city notes to the flight search below. I update everything gradually, as new trips happen.

No schedule — a note appears once I'm back from a trip and have had time to write it up, not on a calendar plan.

That's a separate tool — Flights — for searching and comparing flights. It doesn't book tickets itself; it shows options and takes you to the airline's or agency's site to buy.

Blog readers mark themselves on a shared map — their home and the cities they've visited — with routes drawn automatically between them. You can also record your own walks, hikes, runs, and bike rides with a GPS track (via the mobile app), and like or comment on other members' activities. See who's from where and where they've been, compare your own map with others, and join in yourself — that's the Community section.

Yes — new notes get posted there too, plus the occasional giveaway. You can subscribe and take part in the channel — @sjakubovskis.

Almost every trip, I bring back not just photos but video too — they're on YouTube channel, and wherever a video was filmed, it's embedded right in the city note.

Through the same Telegram bot — @SJB_Travel_Bot — feel free to send feedback, a suggestion, or just a question.

I'd appreciate a review on Google Maps.

It's a separate page — Privacy Policy — Jakubovsky: what data the site and apps collect, why, and how to delete it.
