Hi there fellow Local Guides!
My name is Christoff, I’m from South Africa, and I love improving Google Maps by fixing errors.
Google Maps is all about people right? Helping others to find their way around, get contact details, finding operating hours, and knowing what they can expect when visiting a place. So I love adding new places on Google Maps, but most of all ensuring the information is correct. Closing duplicates, correcting the hours, and confirming the correct location, is what I like doing. I also developed this passion to upload menu photos of restaurants I visit – I feel it’s a great help to others being able to see what’s on the menu, and to get a better idea of the pricing.
That’s me and what I like contributing on Google Maps. Have a good one everyone, and I hope to meet some of you in the future!
Cheers
Christoff
