Hey everyone, happy new year. I hope you've been keeping safe and well.
As some of you know, I'm a software developer and built this platform with lots of help from my friends @daamsie and @mplatts in Melbourne last year.
We spent many months creating the site that you see today, and have been making lots of small improvements along the way based on feedback from our community.
👉 We'd like to know what new features you'd like to see on Travel Massive in 2022?
Since we're a small development team and entirely self-funded (I don't get paid), I will prioritise smaller ideas over bigger, more complicated suggestions (sorry, no apps).
As an example, here's some ideas I'm considering:
• A map where members can share the destination they are visiting
• A place to search and connect with travel influencers & bloggers in our community
• Community points for supporting other people's projects (e.g. comment and upvote)
If you have ideas of how we can make our platform better, please s...

I’m in Bangkok for the next week!
It’s my first time back in over two years, so I’m curious about what’s new to check out 😀
Please share any tips (must be new, Eg < 6 months) of restaurants, rooftop bars, shops, sightseeing, etc here.
I’ll add to this thread if I come across anything new to share, too!
Now is a great time to visit in my opinion. If you are fully vaccinated you can visit without a PCR test or quarantine. 2019 saw 40 million visitors, today it is a small fraction of that number. I recently drove from Bangkok to Phuket over 3 weeks with a lot of stops. You can expect some good prices and a lot less tourists.
Hey Ian,
I saw that The Standard opened up a new property in Bangkok...which I think could be a good spot to add to your list!
Here's a write-up in Dezeen: www.dezeen.com/2022/03/29/the-standard-bangkok-mahanakhon-hotel/
Safe travels!
Hello Ian,
How was your trip? Any finds you wanna share?
