About Us

The about us page tells you what Travel Tipia is and why it matters. It also provides you with a pin on the map for Travel Tipia headquarters (or maybe it is just a pin in a park. I'll leave you to figure that out).

Contact Us

On the contact us page you can reach out with your questions, suggestions or feedback. Simply enter your name, a subject for the email and a message. You can optionally enter an email if you want a response. Once you send the message a member of the team will be able to read it and respond to you via email if you provided one.

Status Page

You can view the current status of the website and of the database the site uses using the status page here. It will tell you if the site is reachable and the database is reachable. If both are showing connected or online in green then the site is working. If it is telling you there is an issue in red then there is a problem and the site is likely either down or working in a limited capacity.
