Careful, you may be doxing yourself. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wi-Fi_positioning_system
Since that requires a map of WiFi APs, it can be done in reverse.

Searching around I found some more APs with that SSID. US, Canada, Germany, Czech Republic and Finland at least. But the map I used rather shows it as a heatmap, so this was just displayed as tiny dots some/many of which I likely missed.
