Hello everybody!
I’m Ana, Mexican now living in Portugal.
I love knowing new places. And in this era we live in, it is much easier to find the way to get to them. I’ve always be bad orienting me but now I feel very safe moving in cities I didn’t know before.
Using Google Maps I always find the right path and of course I always read opinions about the places I go so I can decide if it’s worth or it’s better to avoid them. That way I don’t waste time or money going to where I can regret.
I believe that when you own a business, it is important to know the level of satisfaction of your clients. Knowing what you should improve is as important as knowing what your customers like most. So as a Local Guide I like to give this feedback to business (in case they actually read the comments). And as a user, it is very important to me to know what can I expect from a place I plan to go.
I like to share useful information such as is the place clean? Are they kind? What should I wear? That way, whoever reads my opinion feels more familiar when they get there.
If there is food/drinks, posting a photo is super important because many times we make a decision based on the appearance.
I love sharing information because I love to find it, so that’s the way I can help many people I don’t even know, and this makes me feel useful in an easy way. It doesn’t take me long but I can help a lot.
