Sorry, Citymapper in one word

Minor issues: sometimes a bit ambitious for making tight connections & I haven’t found a way to schedule trips to my calendar or set a reminder

City Mapper for public transport in regions that are supported ☺️ I like the different options like „simple“ or „turbo“ for combining different modes & it’s somehow a joyful app

Today ⬇️ Last chance to get in your language and food fix of the year #BaeFoLa #LanguageAndFood #CulinaryLinguistics

Respekt!

This looks great!

🤭 aber das ist wirklich sehr sportlich in Hannover, da der Bahnhof immer so unheimlich voll ist. Hoffe es hat geklappt!
