I really enjoy creating lists in Google Maps by advising people what to do. I create different lists such as “Bar crawl”, “Top cappuccino spots in the city”, “20 dollar night-out”. I believe this is one of the interesting things I’ve done as a Local Guide as I get a lot of good feedback on my lists. One time a group of tourists asked me to create a list of a nice places to stay at a fair price. After that, they followed my “A one day hiking” and “Bar crawl” lists. Unfortunately, I did not manage to meet up with them as I was away on a business trip. However, they did promise to come back and asked me to create the lists with even more tips. Apart from the visitors, I got a feedback from the local business owners that had an increase on specific orders as per my recommendation (“Best local cuisine” list). Having said all that, I believe that my experience as a Local guide does help to improve local community, both for tourists and small businesses.
