saving restaurants, parks, streets, and places in neat little lists and feasting your eyes on the pins when you zoom in and out of the city πββοΈ
Whenever I discover a new place to visit, I immediately add it to a list.
It feels like I'm collecting an inventory of places and it helps reduce stagnation in my life.
Bonus: it's a great tool for making plans with indecisive friends and perfect to share with tourists!
As a lover of PI.FYI/getting/giving unsolicited recommendations for all things, I recently started sending my google maps pins to people I see traveling to places I've marked a few things. What's better than getting a recco from somebody real and not some dumb watered down sponsored Time Out article about 'Top 5 most instagrammable places in Seoul' etc etc etc. Ew. Here's a list I made while working in London for a month. There is what I like to think a good range from obvious trendy wine bars down to things I stumbled past while ambling around. Plus I think that giving good travel recs gives good travel karma!
i love to figure out where Iβm going in advance and all the interesting cafes, places to see in different places + checking the distance between places! I have all these different lists saved for places to visit in different cities (yes i usually take charge of the itinerary)
i like to think im really good with directions

all the dogs wagging their tails and all the dogs who are older and scared. and donβt forget about the cats in their little carriers. i love animals so much πββοΈ
