I am Anisa, a hackivist, a feminist, an FLOSS enthusiast and contributor from Albania, an agriculture person that through the process discovered that I am really into technology, and mostly Free Software and the ideology behind it. I am a member of Open Labs Hackerspace for 5 years now and also a mapper. I am currently living in Tirana, the capital of Albania. Tirana is a small city if you check it in the map, but yet, really vivid, noisy, and with many things to map. The story behind my nickname is really simple, and actually based on my past. When I was little I used to live in Greece with my family so my OSM nickname is actually my real name, but written in Greek. Regarding my hobbies, oh that’s a bit complicated, but to sum up, I like outdoor activities and exploring new things.

This time we have a young, new mapper from Belgium. Hopefully this article remembers you about your early days or shows you that an enthusiast new mapper can do a lot of good work. His enthusiasm also shows in the length of the interview, he was unstoppable once he started.

If you can’t attend the Missing Maps mapathon at MSF the week before, if Brussels is a little far for you or if you just can’t get enough, here’s another chance to contribute to OSM in developing countries and/or pass the passion to new volunteers: IPIS is hosting another Mapathon in Antwerp!
We get together to discuss OpenStreetMap.org and related topics.
There are some computers to work on and a projector available. There are also login codes for the wireless network, if you prefer to bring your own computer.
