Instead of using GPS coordinates or traditional street numbers and names, a postal mail service in Mongolia [3] will begin using a new address location system, created by a British tech start-up, in which the world map is divided into trillions of nine-square-meter patches and assigned a unique three-word code. Find the code for your own address at the What3Words website [4] or create your own code. Then write a poem inspired by the combination of these three random words and how they connect to your concept of home.
