New Free App to Make Solo Travel Safer & More Fun

We just launched Ekaki – The Solo Traveler’s Companion App, built for explorers, backpackers, and adventurers who love traveling solo but want safety, connections, and smarter planning in one place.

✅ Connect with like-minded solo travelers based on your destination, dates, and interests
✅ Join or start travel groups around cities, events, or shared passions
✅ Chat one-on-one or in group threads
✅ Ask questions, share travelogues, and stay inspired

I built Ekaki to help solo travelers enjoy every journey without the fear, loneliness, or endless planning headaches.

Try it now 👉 https://ekaki.travel/
iOS app https://apps.apple.com/app/id6746527971
Android App https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tripbudzz.android

💡 Pro tip: Use Ekaki before you leave to plan your route, and while traveling to meet fellow explorers in real-time.

If you love traveling solo, drop a ❤️ or share this with a friend who’s always on the move!

    Love this. Solo travel can be amazing, but the safety + connection gap is real.
    The real-time meetups based on location sound like a game changer for spontaneous plans.

    I recently went on a solo trip to Bir, Himachal pradesh in India and i was honestly left with no clue as to what to do as i was expecting to meet like minded people in the hostel but that was not the case for me and I ended up doing touristy things (although I don't find it uncool) it's just I needed a shift. Since then have been thinking of finding ways to travel with purpose and i feel this can be a great app for people like me.
