If you don’t know what openstreetmap is, it is a collaborative project to create a map of the world. I’m a contributor in my spare time, and I like adding new places, roads and the like. Think of it as wikipedia, but for a map of the world.
Sometimes I get a bit carried away and it gets late. There is always more to map, so the work is never done. That’s why I need to make projects and finish them one by one to feel like I’m making progress. It’s very rewarding to resolve notes that other people have left, because that means that I helped someone, and that makes me happy :)
I live with my parents. I my country it’s very normal at my age. I currently teach swimming to schoolchildren, which I find quite a lot of joy in. Also thank you for saying that I am honourable. That makes me happy.
Hmm. Going by your username, I’m assuming you’re Danish? You are quite the community man/woman i must say to be teaching swimming to kids as well. What inspired that?
I’m editing openstreetmap
Wait what? What do you mean by editing openstreetmap?

Oh, i know opeenstreetmap, but I didn’t know it was like a Wikipedia for maps. That’s lit. I think I’ve found a new hobby haha.
So why is editing maps keeping you up so late. Do you have a passion for geography or just feel obligated to contribute?
