Through the magic of I-stats, I found out YowTRIP was mentioned at a Portuguese Internet magazine, Internet Guia. I don’t know exactly what they said because you have to be a subscriber to read their online version…

I have emailed them asking for the article. Hopefully it was more than just a link. I’m guessing it was on the article titled: “Partilha de Viagens”, which means “Shared Trips.” Here’s what the first paragraph says on their website:

“Aqui está mais um serviço da Internet bastante útil, principalmente para os mais jovens que pretendam deslocar-se a qualquer outro país: após registo basta indicar a cidade/país e vai poder…”

Translating… “Here’s another very useful Internet service, especially for the youth who intent to go to other countries: after registering you can choose the city/country and you will be able to…”

It doesn’t say YowTRIP on their site, but there’s a link from it (so somewhere in the magazine it did mention YowTRIP), but doesn’t this description sound like it?

Oh well, I’ll wait for their response before adding a link from YowTRIP’s press page.
