I live in NYC and have been into street art for as long as I can remember. I frequently travel to places that feature amazing murals e.g. in Stockholm the Snösätra Wall of Fame. I also have attended the Life Is Beautiful festival in DTLV for the last several years primarily for the street art and of course NYC/Bushwick etc. has phenomenal street art. That said, I find those posts tend to get less engagement than the posts I do from/about restaurants. For some reason, my food posts really blow up. I had just started contributing to Google Maps when I went on a 6 week Nordic adventure and posted from Kodbyens Fiskebar in Copenhagen it got over 200K views almost overnight. I was blown away. And In general, food seems to be what people are more likely to react to than my fabulous street art finds. But I continue to post pretty much everything I find interesting.
