Maps

World Map 1999
When I first started travelling I started drawing maps of where I've been.




World Map 2008
Pretty quickly I turned my world map into a version of a metro/subway/tube map. This one is the last of these.



World Map 2015
Then when the metro map got ridiculous I changed to this new style. This is the latest.




10x10 World Map (2022)
This world map is divided into 10° by 10° quadrants. Each quadrant is marked with the most populace city/town.
I have coloured each quadrant I have visited – green if I have visited the featured city, yellow if I have visited the quadrant, but not the city.

Amsterdam stays
A map of all the places that I have stayed in Amsterdam over the years, up to 2023. Although this does not represent every visit, as I've stayed on Raadhuisstraat about a dozen times.
