I created this website (https://unexploredhq.com/) to find unexplored places for travel with my SO. Instead of going to cliched places like Paris in France, I can input an area or region and then select attributes of this place (eg Sunny, Beach, Mountains) .. and see the list of places which satisfy my constraints. In future, I plan to integrate a Flight API so that I can add a constraint of finding places within a budget.
I am a ML researcher/engineer at heart, so building out the attributes by scraping the web was straightforward (have over 26000 locations indexed). But learn React as a hobby (with help from ChatGPT) to build this :)
I might be misunderstanding, but I tried what seemed like a pretty basic search, selecting Eastern Europe region and lake and hiking for attributes, and it didn't come up with anything.
Are there more nuances I should be aware of when trying to search?
Thanks for your feedback. Indeed, something is off for Eastern Europe query .. (first time I have discovered this issue). I will inspect the backend. Feel free to try it with a country name or entire 'Europe' in the meanwhile.
I built this simple website https://unexploredhq.com to find interesting (less known) places to travel with my SO and family. Instead of searching for new places by name, one can search for new places in a region with simple attributes.
I have built the database by scraping some data online, and have a database of 60,000+ locations. The attributes are built with some basic ML and text processing, nothing fancy. But this is sufficient for me to do this search: find places in Europe where I can do surfing and hiking with a temperature of less than 25 degrees.
