Note

Useful advice
Be curious! Note objects located near your home. Maybe you pay attention to the Park or the reservoir, which had not noticed before! A careful study of such maps can reveal to you a new place to stay close to your home.
Another option for the curious! Using Google maps you can look not only at your house from the height of bird flight, but also to see other pictures of your neighborhood. To do this, use the "yellow man", located on the map on the left (on relay for scale). The mouse drag it onto the map, and immediately there shall appear a blue point. Putting a man on any of them you will see the photo of the selected location.
