Conclusion
From this interview, we learned that a solution should:
- motivate or remind travelers to record their experiences (Reason: travelers tend to forget or procrastinate)
- store contact information of new people that the travelers meet (Reason: contact information can be easily misplaced)
- give travelers the option to share specific photos with a specific group of people (Reason: travelers want to choose which photos to share and with whom to share them)
