I’m a traveller (have been to 75+ countries) who also maps the world. Also make videos for my YouTube channel Vagabondity with short walks in various places around the world, showing the atmosphere of the place I’m visiting - check it out! :)

Often try to focus on “high-value” OSM mapping (missing or incorrect roads, missing buildings) instead of much less impactful “low-value” things like micro-mapping of already well-mapped places. I think it’s much more important for the map and hence useful for people when you add a completely missing road or building in poorly mapped place, in comparison to finding and adding every single bench in the park in a very well mapped city, or smth like that. Just something to keep in mind.

But apart from that, I also sometimes map missing green zones in cities because it makes the map more atmospheric and visually pleasant, less boring too :)
