Writer uses Claude to plan conference-break walks and pick German novels from her Goodreads history

Writer Leah Libresco shared two practical Claude use cases while traveling:
- Custom walking route: Claude designed a walk around her interests and a gap in her conference schedule, complete with a simplified map — handy since she had no paid data abroad.
- Reading-history book recs: Using her Goodreads history, Claude recommended contemporary German novels in translation plus one classic.
Quote-tweeter nwilliams030 added that AI helps her most when it points her quickly back to the real world and real people.
