I love a good map!
I’m guessing if you’re here, you probably do too – and you’re going to be glad you clicked, because we’ve got 11 super fun and creative maps for you below.
We’re not talking about regular maps here, y’all – more like popular hats in Europe and reported UFO sightings around the world – so hold onto your own cool hats, people!
