hey Travel Massive!
darryl here, cofounder of LFG (i’ll explain in a sec).
from australia but currently hustling between malaysia, vietnam, and singapore.
excited to share our latest version of LFG here! 👉 www.justlfg.co
so what's LFG?
think spotify meets pinterest, but for travel.
a place to discover and share amazing spots worldwide (esp asia).
and create placelists -- like playlists, but for your favorite places (:
here's the thing about travel content:
> social media posts get buried.
> google maps is just... navigation.
> we wanted something better.
on LFG you can:
> save spots you love.
> make travel wishlists.
> share hidden gems.
> get real recommendations.
> find inspiration.
everything in one place.
all synced with google maps (because yes, we still need that!).
building in public here. would really appreciate any support or feedback. drop a comment or DM if you wanna chat more! always down to connect with fellow Travel Massive community members!
p.s. for anyone planning trips to asia. hit me up in the comments. i got some great spots for you!
just some of my personal favorites!

Love the UXUI and the ASMR in the video! Will def check out some recs when i travel :)
Hi Darryl, thanks for sharing LFG 2.0 with the Travel Massive community!
I love the good looking UX, this is lots of fun exploring cool places.
What cities represent most of your coverage at the moment and what are the top 5 places you want to grow next?
Is there a guide or manifesto for new LFG users to set the expectations for the kind of content you want people to contribute?
Also, great to see another Aussie building something fun and inspiring for travel, well done.
Looking forward to trying out LFG on my upcoming trip to Europe!
Hi Ian, thanks for the kind comment! Always respect and love what you've built with Travel Massive.
Right now, we cover mostly popular APAC cities, especially Southeast Asia - including main cities in Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, Japan, Korea and Australia! As for next cities I want to grow: New York City, Madrid, Barcelona, London, Lisbon! I see these are quite popular and I'd love to get more content outside Asia.
As for guide/manifesto - there honestly really isn't. We always tell our community #NoGatekeeping. At the end of the day, we just the guide itself is to: "Save spots you love. Bookmark where to go next. Share gems with friends."
Can't wait to see your additions for Europe! :)
Hi @Darryl Han!
Well done on the launch! Great UX, can Travel agencies use it to to promote destinations?
Do you have demo video recording available?
Thanks
Christina
Hi Christina, thanks so much for the comment! And of course, you can create your own profile and then promote any destinations in the form of Placelists! Of course, make sure to link all your website and socials too in your profile and any posts.
Just see this example here for Tourism Malaysia board: justlfg.co/profile/malaysia-truly-asia
Good luck Darryl,
This is so much alike to our app Placely where we also have personal and currated lists called 'Placelist' as well.
Rooting for you
appreciate it! i realized there's so many of us out there, but each in our own unique ways - there's just too many types of travelers to cater for
Great product with very intuitive interface. Helped my team found hidden gems for our trip to Taipei & Singapore last year. A request — hidden gems of Jakarta that locals actually go to eat :) Good luck for the team!
amazing, thank you so much for the kind feedback! and sure thing, we'll get a local friend on it ;) maybe you could even help share one too when we come visit! :D
