Tired of the new rules, Carmina closed her Google Maps account — what pushed her over the edge?

It’s been months since Carmina last posted on her Google Maps. I started doing it just for fun, exploring new places to dine and travel, and sharing those spots with others. Back in 2017, I wasn’t even blogging yet. Over the years, I received numerous email updates about changes, but in September, the removal of followers on Google Maps felt particularly strange.

Walking in Lake Merrit Park in Oakland, California


Living in the Bay Area there are actually places close by to walk or to hike only when you have the right person to accompany you.

Carmina and Joanie have been best friends since high school. Not many people can still keep in touch for a long time.

The best part with Joanie she always finds time to spend when Carmina is in town. We love to talk, explore and eat when we do have the time together.

Carmina and Joanie had purchased some milk tea from Yokee Milk Tea drank it at Lake Merrit Park.
