I started a Map of the Day a few weeks ago over on my Instagram (http://instagram.com/themapwanderer). Yes, I had to use THEmapwanderer because someone took mapwanderer (and doesn’t even post pictures on it!). Grrr.
Missed out on the #mapoftheday? Here they are!
(1) One of my first travel consulting projects was for friend’s trip to Denali National Park in Alaska. I requested more information from Alaska Tourism (for my own reference too) and of course there was a map inside!#mapoftheday
(2) Day 2 of #mapoftheday is also on Mother’s Day! My mom visited me when I was living in Europe last year and we did a trip to Italy. Here at the Vatican Museum, there was a photo gallery of maps and I was very excited! Happy Mother’s Day to the woman who has been my support thorough all my travels and all the other mothers out there!
(3) A cute map I got in Brighton from a bar..loved it because it has such cute drawings of the buildings so it was on my wall all year when I was living there. It’s not so accurate, but does the job. I even started writing in some of the places with special meaning.#mapoftheday
(4) Day 4 of #mapoftheday! Part of the world map I have on my wall. Vintage with stamps all over it. Bought it in a shop in Iceland!
(5) Today’s #mapoftheday is from Vanuatu, an island nation in the South Pacific Ocean! I love hand drawn maps, so this was a fun one of the town of Luganville on Espiritu Santo (largest island in Vanuatu).
(6) My favorite public transport system is in London! Today’s #mapoftheday is the London Tube map. 🙂
(7) And this map of Oxford concludes a week of #mapoftheday! Loved the old town feel of Oxford and especially getting to see the inspiration behind the Great Hall in Harry Potter in person. Happy Friday! =)
(8) A postcard I got while in Ireland last year. It’s today’s #mapoftheday! Enjoy your weekend =)
(9) Bay to Breakers 2013 in SF! This is the#mapoftheday with the 12K/7+mile route. I ended up joining and walking over 5 miles of it … in my sandals…oops…Feet are definitely hurting!
(10) This #mapoftheday is from the town of Puerto Iguazu, home of the Iguazú Falls, the prettiest waterfalls I’ve seen…did you know it’s at the intersection of three countries – Argentina, Uruguay, and Paraguay?
(11) Happy hour today, needed to find Palomino on this #mapoftheday of 345 Spear St. Views of the Bay Bridge, lovely!
(12) Today’s #mapoftheday is of Egypt! I got this hand crafted map on papyrus from a shop in #Dahab along the Red Sea.
(13) Cool! Found this 17th century world map in a box of my old things. #mapoftheday
