Introduce Yourself — January 2024

Hi everyone — and Happy New Year! Welcome to Local Guides Connect. Please take a moment to introduce yourself to our community.

As “Introduce Yourself” threads can be lengthy, we start a new one each month and lock past threads. You can check previous threads, like December’s, to see who recently joined and where they’re from. We’ll merge any “I’m new” and “Hello world” posts we find elsewhere with this thread to keep things organized.

Do you want to be featured in our monthly Introduce Yourself posts**?** Share your introduction in the comments, following the five prompts below, and a horizontal photo of yourself (in landscape mode). The best introductions will be considered for future Introduce Yourself posts. Please note: Your response may be edited for clarity. By taking part in this challenge, you agree to allow us to share your answers and photo(s) publicly here on Connect.

This month, meet @PriscilaJimenez ! Priscila is a Local Guide Level 8, and here’s what she shared.

1. Name: Priscila Jimenez

2. Location: Buenos Aires, Argentina :argentina:

3. What I love about being a Local Guide: I love to share relevant and helpful information about the places I go. I started using Google Maps when I moved to Buenos Aires 6 years ago. Reading other people’s reviews helped me a lot to decide whether to visit a place or not and discover some hidden gems in this amazing city. :world_map:

4. My favorite thing to explore: I got a full list! But my top five are: coffee shops, ice cream shops, museums, libraries, and vintage stores. :heart_eyes:

5. Fun fact about me: I love to play Mario Kart on Nintendo Switch! :checkered_flag:

Nice to meet you, Priscila! Local Guides, don’t miss the chance to say hi to Priscila in the comments below and share your introduction, too.

Hello @ameensaleh , welcome to the forum. I understand your enthusiasm to write something new, but there are certain rules that you must follow when writing in the Forum. One of the most important of these rules is not to share photos with as many people or shots as possible. I see that you are sharing photos of young children here, so please do not get spammed. upload photos to help more local guides

২০২৩ এর লাস্টে এসে আমরা গেছিলাম শাফিন পার্ক। রাজশাহী জেলার গোদাগাড়ীতে এই সাফিনা পাক অবস্থিত। পার্কটি অনেক আগে থেকেই চালু ছিল কিন্তু রিসেন্টলি পার্কটিতে অনেক কিছু কাঠামোগত উন্নয়ন এবং ভিতরের কাজ করা হয়েছে এবং নতুন ভাবে আবার পার্টি চালু হয়েছে।
