minus-squareCheradenine@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·7 months agoI love paper maps, I have never had one run out of battery, or direct me onto a dead end. It’s more than that though. It’s an adventure whenever you look at one. I never use GPS or location services, show me a map and I know where I am and how to get to the next place. My most recent paper map is of Tobago.
