Started writing reviews and collaborating as local guide because, as a user, I generally look up information on places near me or locations I am traveling to, and noticed a lot of missing info; from date/hours of operations, to price range and photos to get a general feel of the atmosphere.
For me, is a way of sharing experiences, helping others in making decisions, or just documenting something I liked/disliked for future reference (memory is not as good as it used to be).
Being from a country where tourism is the largest industry, we should all feel the need to showcase the best, without filters or Photoshop, that the country/island has to offer.
Since Local Guide connects directly to my Android phone, every picture I take, every road trip we go on, is really well documented, tagged and easily shareable to millions of users.
Hope to keep sharing and documenting everything we have to offer for years to come.
