Explore with GPSmyCity

If you're a traveler who likes to explore on your own and skip group tours, then let me introduce you to GPSmyCity.
GPSmyCity is a mobile app (available in iOS and Android) that contains a treasure trove of city guides and insider tips written by intrepid travelers. There are city guides for over 600 cities and insider tip articles for over 1300 cities!

What's special about this app is that each guide/article includes a map with a detailed travel route plotted out (all maps can be accessed for a minimal yearly subscription fee). You can also create your own walking tours! Plus, these can also be saved for offline use. The GPSmyCity app lets you explore at your own pace without worrying about roaming charges or erratic network signals!

I am happy to announce that three of my articles are now available in GPSmyCity:

• Strolling and Snacking in Miyajima
• Remembering the Past in Hiroshima
• Temples and Cherry Blossoms in Yoshino (Nara)

And just in time for the cherry blossom season in Japan, Temples and Cherry Blossoms in Yoshino (Nara) full version article with GPS-aided map is available for FREE from April 14 to 28, 2025. Just click on the link and try it out! (If you haven't already downloaded and installed the GPSmyCity app, it will prompt you to do so.)
With the GPSmyCity app installed on your smartphone, you have the world on the palm of your hand!
