I discovered this site a week or two ago. It seemed awesome! I definitely never knew there was a map wikipedia, where people all around the world have poured probably thousands of hours to detailing!

I discovered the project from a youtube video and it instantly caught my attention. These days cartography is mostly looked down at because with a click of a button you can pull up google maps, but this project can help others + more.

I wanted to help, so I turned to my hometown of San Diego. It definitely isn’t small, but the neighborhood I lived in for the longest time (La Jolla) is. I only recently moved away!

I have begun at northern La Jolla Village. Working my way down every little detail. I’d say I’ve done quite well so far! I look forward to mapping when I’m bored or feel like it, it’s kinda calming just drawing shapes and lines over a map for some strange reason.

Lucku signing off.

PS. I edited the original first diary because I wrote it too quickly.
