Map Translation Book

I am in the process of putting together a book that describes my travels and project into more detail. The images below are where I am at right now. So far I have just been playing with the layouts of the table of contents, introduction, locations, and location explanations. The places that have a dashed line, I am considering sewing a line, scanning it in and using it as a image but I am not sure if this is what I want yet. Also, I want to add more spread such as infographs comparing the trips.

Mainly, I am trying to find a good balance between my handmade maps against graphics/vectors. The pages are 8 x 8 inches to stay with my square theme. I am hoping to get the book printed.
