Recreational mapmaking.
Every couple of months the family and I will book out some long weekend to just go to an Airbnb in some random town with some copy paper and just go around trying to draw what we think is around us. Inevitably the lines collide and we have to ask some local passerby for help, and if they know any interesting places nearby, and before you know it they're following along with a colored pencil and some copy paper against a hardcover book too.
- rationalist 7mo agoNow that's a niche hobby that sounds interesting.
- helterskelter 7mo agoYou could get a sextant and become an amateur surveyor :)
- subdomain 7mo agoWow, that's really cool -- what places have you done so far?
- krottler 7mo agoThis sounded very interesting. Can you share some map that you created?
- rkhassen9 6mo agoThis is awesome. I think there is something about making your own sense of things, your own order that brings an aliveness and a freshness to an experience. I will try this.
