> How are you going to monetise it?

Also my immediate question. I am willing to pay for a service like this to continue (I love traveling and have been looking for a good app to function as a journal). My first thought was basically, "A travel journal is really important to me now and will increasingly become more important to me. How can I guarantee this work/time/life invested will continue for 40 years?"

Thanks for the feedback. It's great to hear that you're willing to pay for such a service. If you're interested i put you on our list of testers for freemium?!
I'd be happy to test—though my traveling will be limited in the near future (I just finished a summer of traveling).

Edit: just noticed you were located in Wien. Ironically, I spent three weeks there this summer (mostly in Pötzleinsdorf area).

We are from Wien that's right. :) Hope you had a great time there! At the moment we are in San Francisco. At least until October.
There is no guarantee that your data will be around 40+ years from now unless its physically on your storage. I would like to hear from the founders plan to monetize.
The business model is going to be freemium. We're currently evaluating different features to decide which should go into a premium bundle. So we're always happy to hear from our users about their problems and limitations of the app. but basically the idea is to charge for additional storage. hth
