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?
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 :)
Oh that's very honourable. We need more people like you in this world. So tell me about your work life. What do you do to make a living?
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.
