Hello I’m Anwar Effendi, you can call me Anwar, I’m from Balikpapan, Borneo, Indonesia.
For me being a Local Guides is one of the most precious thing that i can be in my life because I can help people and guide people, I love traveling especially traveling around Borneo.
Borneo is a huge island in Indonesia and there is so many potential places that people need to see and explore and amazingly Local Guides is the best medium to share all the potential places in Borneo. Borneo is the home for Dayak tribe, there is many things to explore about Dayak from its arts, dances, nature and the community. Not only explore I hope through Local Guides people can learn the other tribes especially Dayak culture which so rich of knowledge.
I love being Local Guides because i can actually guide people to see all the hidden gems like this with easy contribute and review places.
Near my neighbourhood there is beautiful beach with beautiful sunset and airplane flight/landing view because the beach is near to airport, I’m so happy that I can actually growing up and witnessing the neighbourhood like this but I want more, I want to people to know about this place too, I want people can enjoy this place too but sadly, not so many people knew this place and I was so excited to add this place to the Maps and time after time people starting to visit this place and enjoying the same beach, beautiful view and beautiful sea view like I do and surely I’m proud being Local Guides and my contribution.
Look, how great Local Guides can connect people to potential place like this, this good impact such a have great opportunity for people to reach more places, connect to the world and open people’s eyes and mind.
