BackpackBuddy
"BackpackBuddy" is a website prototype designed to help backpackers find activities to do and to connect with other backpackers. For this project I came up with the concept, found APIs that I wanted to incorporate into the website, did user research, designed the entire website for different devices and had this prototype tested several times by the target group. This resulted in a beautiful design. Would you like to know more about the design or take a look at the prototype? Then scroll further down this page.

BackpackBuddy shows the backpacker activities that can be booked based on his/her location. The backpacker can view photos and post them on the platform. You can communicate via chat with other backpackers who are nearby. This way you can meet other backpackers and do activities together.
