If you're inspired to travel places based on photographs you've seen then the SMWH.RE web app is ideal for you. This app cleverly pairs up Instagram photos of surreal locations with accompanying dialogue so you can help plan where to go on your next adventure.
Parisian designer Benjamin Netter put together the SMWH.RE -- an ingenious play on the word 'somewhere'-- app for travelers that like to pick spots to visit based on photographs. The app pulls up images posted onto Instagram of incredible beaches, buildings and forests along with a map of where the spot is as well as a description of the place. This is great for people looking for new places to seek out that they might not have otherwise found.
