No self-respecting tourist would be seen pulling out a map under the Arc
de Triomphe. Palomars
crushable maps ($20) are an inconspicuous solution.
They are soft, light and waterproof, and so cool that fellow
travellers will flock to you like pigeons in San Marco. Stuff it in a
pocket or pouch when not in use. Paris, Rome, Amsterdam, Oslo and
Toronto are among the cities on offer, with no doubt more to come.
And for those of us who cant read maps anyway, at least well get lost in
style. Athena Tsavliris
