Travel Tuesday: Map Envy

Welcome back to Travel Tuesday! No rules: Just a place to share travel posts with other like-minded bloggers every Tuesday. We haven't had a suggested topic for a while, so next week, I'm going to spotlight some of my favorite travel blogs, if you want to do the same. As always, though, anything travel-related goes! Today, I'm talking maps.

I love maps. I do. In fact, for Christmas I got a 4' x 6' map of the world, which is now hanging on my wall in a DIY frame, lovingly adorned with gold pins (see above). If I could, I would decorate my whole apartment with maps! It's a nice reminder of where I've been and a better inspiration of where I want to go in the future. Here are five more maps I would love to add to my collection:

Seriously—how fun is this one?! (image via Enkel Dika)

"outrageously detailed 1931 map of Yosemite" via Sierra Club

Of course there are way more maps I wouldn't turn down, but I didn't want to overload you or your poor computers. :) If you like these, check out my Pinterest board devoted to maps, where I collect all the pretty/witty/interesting maps I find around the interwebs.

Which map is your favorite? Do you have a "where-you've-been" map?
