So this year as a local guide will be super exciting for me.

I have quit my job, sold my house and bought a caravan, all so I could explore Australia and find the most amazing places to share with everyone.

I want my photos and reviews to help millions of people around the world no all the best places to go and what to expect.

This was all inspired from when I worked at Australian Geographic and saw all the people travelling around Australia.

I would love advice, opinions and any information anyone is willing to give to be the best local guide I can be!

@Thecaravengers Well start with contributing on Google maps and then also start on crowdsource . You will find a lot of tasks there and means to help others.

All the best
