Well this is not the Colosseum in Rome! This is the Roman Amphitheater in El Jem, Tunisia, my hometown! It’s the 3rd largest roman amphitheater in the world, and is the number one tourist attraction in Tunisia!
As a local in El Jem all the time I’m in contact with visitors from all around the world, and I used to get stopped by many of them to ask me about some location and directions, so a couple of years ago I thought there’s something wrong all these people are all the time lost! I checked Google Maps and I was surprised that not much of places in El Jem were listed in the app! From that moment on I joined the Local Guides program and started adding all the places, attractions, and businesses in the city to the Google Maps app!
After a short period of time I started noticing how visitors to my city started reviewing the places I added to Google Maps and posting photos! This is really one of the things I’m very proud of! I contributed in a way to my hometown and helped all the visitors to roam our country number one tourist attraction easily!
So far this is the most interesting thing I’ve done as a local guide and I’m so proud of it!
