Main gardens and parks wonderful in spring.
I couldn't resist to present them because it's spring time so the good moment for a visit !

This map was created as part of a California Road Trip book. To see the whole book, visit my website: www.marielcartin.com

“Alligator Alley” (Formally known as Interstate 75) is a controversial road built in 1968 connecting the east and west coasts of Florida. The controversy originates from the fact that it cuts directly through the Everglades. While there are some bridges and tunnels to help wildlife pass through the road safely, I-75 attracts the local alligator population to the traffic with its warm pavement and convenient placement.

A map I created to show the world some of the beautiful things we have in Venezuela!

The Schuylkill River is know for its history, outdoor activities, and close proximity to the city of Philadelphia. I know it from the biased angle of practicing boating sports on the river itself.

My family and I have been visiting Wolf Rock and Chimney rock for years - even before I could make the hike myself! (That's me in the backpack)

If anyone is in the northwestern Maryland are, they should check out the mountain park. It's free and the hike loop is a great time!

This is my assignment as part of the Illustrated Maps class at the Maryland Institute College of Art. Follow our class blog here at:

A little weather map sequence to explain the Pineapple Express meteorological phenomenon which is responsible for occasional torrential rains (and flooding) on the Pacific coast of North America.

Our local mountains within 30 minutes of downtown Vancouver are perfect for trying skiing/snowboarding and other winter sporting activities. Reasonable rates are offered for a family-friendly outing, minus the longer drive (2 hours north of Vancouver) to the more world-famous resort area of Whistler/Blackcomb.

So much to do in this wonderful state and this is just a short list!
