How do I add multiple locations to one event?

Travel and Work events support multiple stops so you can capture every destination or office location in one place.

Which events support multiple locations

Travel and Work events have a locations section in the event form. Travel events label it "Destinations / Stops." Work events label it "Office Location(s)."

All other lane types support a single location pin. Multiple stops are only available on Travel and Work events because those are the chapters most likely to span several places.

How to add stops

Open the event form for a Travel or Work event. In the locations section, type a place name and select it from the suggestions — this adds your first stop.

To add more, click "+ Add another stop." Each stop gets its own location field. Stops appear in order on the map, connected by a route line so the journey reads clearly.

Multiple stops and Premium

Free accounts can add one location per event. Adding a second or third stop is a Premium feature.

If you are on the Free plan, the "+ Add another stop" button will prompt you to upgrade. Your first stop is always free to add.

Why multi-stop events are useful

A two-week trip through several cities is one chapter of your life — not six separate events. Multi-stop entries let you keep the journey together while still pinning every destination on the map.

For work events, multiple office locations capture a remote role that moved cities or a job that involved a second site, without creating duplicate entries.

Rules of Thumb

  • Keep a multi-city trip as one event with multiple stops rather than splitting it into separate events.
  • Order stops roughly by the sequence you visited them — the map connects them in order.
  • Use the description to add context about each stop if individual detail matters.

Common Mistakes

  • Creating a separate travel event for each city in the same trip.
  • Adding multiple stops to non-travel lanes — only Travel and Work support them.
  • Leaving coordinates blank — type the place name and select a suggestion to pin it properly on the map.
