If you travel often, it might not be a hard idea to acquire several maps of various locations that you are interested in traveling to. Once arriving at your destination, if you are still are anxious for travel maps, hotels are another place to seek these maps. You can obtain them either by simply asking the front desk for maps they are able to give, or by visiting the gift shop. Theyll likewise have brochures obtainable for their destination, which will incorporate small maps of the field. There are many ways to getting travel maps, and while one source is not better then another, the most educated traveler will say that using two to three sources for obtaining travel maps will broadly speaking be the wisest idea.
You may have dreamed as a child in finding a "Treasure Map", such as the one from Treasure Island. Such dreams can come true when hunting for an antique map. With a basic knowledge of history and an interest in finding a deal, one can discover some real "treasures" in old antique maps. There have been maps purchased for a few dollars that were actually worth the price of a house. Even if you have been on the look out for the Treasure Map for as many years as I, you may not find it. However you may easily double or triple your money when you know what to look for in an antique map. Finding the right map can sometimes feel like looking for the proverbial needle in a haystack. You should start your hunt by determining a selection of maps that have sold in the last two years between $500 and $3,000. Start to learn about the cartographers and editions of these maps. You will find estimates of the sales of old maps on major auction sites or even on eBay.
The key is knowledge, so you will need to learn as much as you can about the individual maps you are hunting for. I suggest you choose a subject of cartography or a historical period you may interested in learning about. Consider maps made during the American civil war, maps of the Republic of Texas, maps of Scotland if you are of Scottish ancestry or maps of Rome if you went there on honeymoon. For example, your adoptive child is from China then you can concentrate on maps of China. The options are limitless. The idea is that within each field there will be a few fairly rare and desirable maps that can fetch some good money when sold at auction. When you have become acquainted with the current sale price of your selection of maps you will need to consider condition and editions. By this I mean a specific edition, of a specific year for a map in good condition with no tears, water stains, major repairs and has good color. By the time you have done the things described above you will have a fair amount of knowledge about the world of antique maps. You will now be starting your hunt. In your hunt you should go to all the consignment shops and thrift stores in your area. Visit antique stores and old book stores and ask to see if they have old maps. By doing this you will get to handle antique maps and get a feel for them.
Mind mapping: a powerful brainstorming tool Whether youre a busy executive or a copywriter like me, mind mapping leads to a flow of thoughts. And by creating blank branches, youre forced to satisfy the brains desire for Gestalt, or wholeness, to find answers and make new associations. Where traditional note taking works in a constrained, linear way, mind mapping exploits the brains tendency to scan the whole field of information before it. Advantages of mind mapping for copywriters? So often, the simplest ideas and tools are the most powerful. For my work as a copywriter, Ive used mind mapping daily to plan articles, brochure content and website copy as well as for all manner of thinking and brainstorming purposes. Naturally, this article was planned using mind mapping.
For the cities themselves you can just rely on the maps mentioned before, but when it comes go move from one to the other, its a good idea to get small but detailed maps where you can find your route. Of course, if you travel by train, an inter-rail map would be the best. If you go by road, a good idea is to avoid buying any maps and use the Google Earths function that allows you to write two cities and the program finds with detail the best route possible. Print out the screen and the indications or copy it in a paper and theyll be great value. Finally, if you are going on a trip that includes many countries, you can find the best travel maps by using the system mentioned above for road travel. Instead, for rail travel I would encourage you to get one single map for every country as maps for a whole continent will be far less the detail grade you expect them to be. If you are going to Europe, a good idea is to get also the timetables for all European departures getting the Eurail timetable that gets published every year. In any case, when you are looking to select one map or another, the best deal will always be the most simple one. A map loaded with data and details of everything is confusing and will get you tired. When looking for the best travel maps you need to find in the map only what is interesting you and nothing else.
