Map Exercise

In class, we had to do an exercise where we had to map out our journey to uni that day and our table misheard and we all mapped out our three destinations for our brochure, which was in fact very helpful. This was the first time I had actually seen my three places together on a map (lucky this was just a class exercise because I would not want this drawing in my brochure). I have also traced a few maps from Google Maps to help understand the shape of my map, this has been documented in my workbook.

Reflection

What I found difficult was that there aren’t really any well-known destinations nearby on my map such as the waterfront, etc. So I found the exercise challenging, it will be interesting to see how I can develop my map because I think the shape of the roads for my map is a difficult shape to work with when picturing it on my Discover Wellington spread. I will also need to think of different ways of showing each destination, rather than just a pin point.
