How was the idea born?
“For many years now, I have been organizing for my clients interested in traveling and photography inspiring and original expeditions focused on discovering exotic countries through the viewfinders of their cameras. Together, we have visited six continents and places as diverse as the major US national parks, South Africa, Iceland, Peru, New Zealand or China. From every trip, I bring not only amazing memories, but also beautiful photographs. I love sharing my experience, but I cannot possibly take everyone with me on an expedition. And I got an IDEA! I decided to create an app to share all those beautiful places I have visited on this planet along with tips on how to photograph them. I named the app Fripito,” said Jan, professional photographer and founder of Fripito.

Why Indiegogo campaign and why donating is a great idea?
Fripito is an original idea and we have spent the last three months living and breathing only for this project. The app is now undergoing the finishing touches and we have over a dozen guides ready including Iceland, Namibian safari, Yosemite or Peru. We have reached out and got on board dozens of like-minded travelers and photographers, Fripito enthusiasts who will help expand the guide selection, but in order to ensure new guides are added regularly we need to hire more travelers and photographers and translators. This is what we will use the majority of the raised funds for. A small portion of the funding will be used for promoting the app to the target group. In addition to funding you can also promote the app by spreading the word to your friends on Facebook or Twitter. Let’s all enjoy traveling and take great photographs and help preserve the great memories of all the amazing places around the world.
