I’m very new to this. Has been posting but inconsistently, still managed to acquire Local Guide LEVEL 6 badge I’m a connoisseur of Good food places, great cinema experiences, and some nice music gigs in the city , All SOLO by myself ( because it’s tough to make friends being an introvert ) Happy to contribute in whatever CAPACITY I can to this community
As a professional photographer since 2009 with over 90 weddings under my belt, I love using my “pro” lens to help people see the world clearly. Reaching Level 8 has been a rewarding journey of sharing high-quality imagery that helps local businesses shine and travelers find the best spots.
4. My favorite thing to explore
I’m drawn to the character of historic cities, vibrant college campuses, and coastal harbor towns. My secret for seeing it all is my electric unicycle—it’s the ultimate way to navigate urban history and find unique, off-the-beaten-path angles that most people miss on foot.
5. Fun Fact about me
I’m a bit of a polymath: I work as an Overall Quality Engineer at Subaru, I’m a software developer building iOS/macOS apps, and I’m a professional photographer. Whether it’s a car, a line of code, or a photo, I’m obsessed with high-quality results!

Location: Wasaga Beach, Ontario, Canada Fun Fact: Wasaga Beach is the longest freshwater beach in the World! 14km, to be exact!
What I love about being a Local Guide: I love being the eyes and ears for my community. After 9 years of contributing, I’ve realized that a single photo or a detailed review can help a family decide where to spend their weekend or help a newcomer find the best local services. It’s about building a digital legacy of helpfulness.
My favorite thing to explore: I’m an expert on family-friendly spots and local hidden gems in Simcoe North. I love discovering new parks, local “mom and pop” shops, and community hubs like our new Wasaga Stars Arena.
Fun Fact about me: I’ve reached over 6.6 million total views on my contributions! My most popular photo alone has over 370k views, which is almost 15 times the entire population of my town. It’s wild to think I’ve helped that many people from my phone.
I am a Moroccan man who loves nature and development. My passion is creating and renovating spaces. I set challenges for myself, and my goal is to settle in another country where I will find opportunities and options to prove my success and my strength. My guiding principles in life are peace, benevolence, living life to the fullest, and enjoyment.

Hello, I’m so grateful to be back here!! I just got reinstated as a guide after 6 or so years of being removed (insert crying face here). I’m glad it boiled down to a misunderstanding! I’m SO SO excited to be back here. One of my favorite hobbies is photography and I loved sharing my photos for other people to decide if they’d like to visit where I got to visit. I made quite an impact awhile ago, and I’m hoping to do the same now! Thank you all for allowing me to be here with you, and I can’t wait to see what journey you’re all on, yourselves!
