Hi everyone! 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 past threads to see who recently joined and where they’re from (simply search for “Introduce Yourself”). If you’re new, please use this thread to post your “I’m new” or “Hello world” posts. We’ll merge any posts we find elsewhere with this thread to keep things organized.
To start, let me introduce myself:
- Name: Albry Smither
- Location: New York City (posting this from Tokyo, where I’m doing a 4-week work rotation)
- What I love about being a Local Guide: The community’s passion for helping others by mapping their world
- My favorite [place / thing / cuisine / other] to explore: I suffer from wanderlust. I love exploring new places. Right now, when not working from our Tokyo office, I’m out exploring with my family. My daughters have us exploring every different version of gyozo we can find.
- Fun fact about me: Once upon a time, I was in a competitive dance troupe.
