🗣 On a trip, Destino becomes a live guide
Destino does more than tell bedtime stories. When you travel with your child, the same voice walks the city with you. It is not a recording but a conversation: ask what that building is, ask for the short version, cut in mid-sentence — it answers right away. The whole family or group can listen and talk at the same time.
Your first conversation doesn't use minutes, and the balance is shared with the stories.
