You should feel comfortable editing your template. To customize for your site you will need some knowledge of HTML, CSS, and possibly JavaScript.

Description

Displays, without reloading the page, a map of various locations that you've traveled to, as well as any text about that location. The locations fit in a hierarchy of country, region, city, or place. Each location, no matter which level, is a single post. The data in the post title, post body, and post labels controls what shows on the map for each location. Users click on a location to display the map & text for that location, and all lower-level links connected to that location.
