About Hobbie

Hobbie finds the strangest, most amusing, most amazing things about any place on Earth. Type a city, pick a mood, get five things actually worth knowing.

Hobbie reads in parallel from Wikipedia, Wikivoyage, Wikidata, Reddit (r/AskHistorians and friends), and the open web — then surfaces the strangest, most specific items it can verify. Every claim is cited so you can chase the source yourself.

The four moods steer what gets prioritized:

• I'm visiting — things you could actually see or do
• I want to learn — depth, history, scholarly anecdotes
• Amuse me — the weird, the absurd, the "wait, what?"
• Surprise me — mix of angles you wouldn't expect
