Jenni writes of her map of Berlin:
"I spent a week in Berlin during the summer and used that time as well as intensive research to help me along the process. It was particularly challenging in terms of the language barrier, but a great project to work on."

For San Francisco:
"I spent months researching the city, including flying out to visit and meet it's residents.
I had a fantastic time meeting some wonderful, unique people and travelling around the place.
After researching I spent another 3 months drawing the map from start to finish, and here's the end result."
