This year, I set out on a quest: to walk every road in Vancouver. And what began as a personal challenge turned into something more. Each walk opened up a new corner of the city, a new story, and a deeper connection to place.

But I wanted a way to see where I'd been. To track my routes, notice what I was missing, and keep going. So I started tinkering. Just me, a laptop, and a spot on the couch. I wrote some scrappy scripts to map my Apple Watch walks. Then shared it with a few friends. Then more joined. Slowly, Gogomi took shape.

Gogomi helps you explore your city on foot, turning every walk into a kind of game. It shows you what you've covered, what's still out there, and celebrates the neighbourhoods you've claimed along the way. It was first a tool for my journey, but is now becoming a walking companion for many.

Gogomi has helped me stay curious, stay present, and keep walking. I hope it does the same for you 😊
