Create your own Map using Google MyMaps: The places Books have taken me

Recently I came across a way to create my own map of the places I have visited by reading books.

These are the books that I read in January and February 2017. Here is my Progress of Books.

It is certainly true that books take you to places, a portal to the world you have never been before. Finding time to read a book is the best way to appreciate life.

Here is how you can also create your own map:

  1. Go to https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/

  2. Click on ‘Create a New Map’.

  1. Title your Map and Import your Excel/CSV file to the Maps.

(In excel file, you have to make 2 columns, 1. Name of the Book, 2. Location)

  1. Import this file to the Maps.

  2. Make sure that you name the columns on the Excel sheet correctly.

  3. You can change the Base Map, Add Layers, Change colors etc.

Have Fun!
