Introduce Yourself - June 2021

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, like May’s, 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.

I’ll go first!

1. Name: Angie

2. Location: Sofia, Bulgaria, but originally from Indonesia

3. What I love about being a Local Guide: When it comes to the community, what strikes me the most is the diversity. I learn a lot from the Local Guides on Connect and Google Maps: from culture to hidden gems and food, to different tips, and more. This community really opened my eyes to how big and wonderful our world is, and I’m very proud to be a part of it!

4. My favorite thing to explore: I love cafes and restaurants and everything related to food! Wherever I go, I open Google Maps and explore the best places to grab a bite around me.

5. Fun Fact about me: I’m allergic to chocolate, but I don’t have a sweet tooth anyway, so that’s fine with me! I prefer savory meals and snacks. There are only a handful of desserts I like, like carrot cake and lemon tart, and, of course, boba tea.

Now it’s your turn!

I m adibhastha became a Local Guide because i loves feeling like a tourist in my own city. "It is one of the best hobbies I could have found, "

With over 12T views photos on Google Maps, I am passionate about many areas of contributing and places special emphasis on reviewing places for the LGBTQ+ community, people with reduced mobility, and those looking for pet-friendly

Hello dear friend, @Bobiisha

A humble thought - could you analyse the psychological feeling of a newcomer to our community, when he/she reads a huge junk of INFO+LINKs!!! (Like here).

Hope you will spare a minute to FEEL this.

Sorry, if am wrong.

Thanks

Hey @TravellerG ,

This is an article that I like a lot and summarizes most of the Help Desk articles in Portuguese. Many Portuguese-speaking Local Guides find it useful :slightly_smiling_face: As it is divided in sections, anyone can read only the part that finds interesting. Local Guides from Brazil also use it to connect with each other.
