Very good answer, thank you. I don't think that I would use “Je viens de là” if someone mentioned my hometown, though, but rather “je viens de là-bas”, and I am rather ambivalent on the map example, too.

@Evpok That's interesting. Do you mean you'd use ici or là-bas with the map?

@Eauquidort Yeah, I'd probably say “On est allé là-bas”
