Well, the desert race, I would like to talk about the situation when I used my offline map. Three years ago, I decided to visit Istanbul to break my sedentary life, and actually before reaching the travel itinerary, I took the internet access and downloaded an offline map because I was not sure I could access the internet in certain places. For this reason, without internet, I could navigate very easily by using the offline Google Map. Sometimes it would stop working, and this made me feel a little bit stressed and anxious because without Google Maps, I couldn't find my way easily, especially in an area where everything was new to me, including the environment and the people. On the other hand, I never preferred to ask for directions from people because sometimes it can be a bit disturbing for them. For this reason, when I used my Google Map, I could find my way easily, and it made me feel so rewarded and happy. This way, I could reach restaurants or cafes without wasting my time. Using Google Maps changed my life and expanded my horizons.
