This month, we visit Italy.
@Bobiisha : This month, we’re loving Local Guide @manulele81 's review of Azienda agricola Brandimarte Maurizio, a women-led organic farm in Norcia. In it, he says:
“Excellent farm with a small family-run dairy. The products are all to be tasted, and the staff is always available. The store is on the ground floor and is accessible for people with reduced mobility. Early in the morning and at sunset, you can also meet the sheep. For a guided tour, I recommend booking.”
Emanuele’s review is crisp and to the point. It’s a great example of how Local Guides can say a lot with a few sentences. There are helpful details about what to expect at the farm when it comes to facilities, accessibility, and experiences. He also included tips on how to enjoy your visit to the fullest: try all the products and book a guided tour.
We appreciate how Emanuele adds value for others to Google Maps one review at a time. It’s no surprise he was recognized in our nomination form!

@TsekoV : Local Guide @plavarda took the stunning photo you see above at Villa Fogazzaro Roi in the Province of Como. And we love it!
The composition is perfect, and the wide angle gives us a lot to admire. The lake looks as if it has no end, and its brightness makes the shadows of the garden feel cool and refreshing. There’s also a pleasant contrast between the vivid greens and blues, with just a pop of earthy color from the pot at the front.
Paolo’s photo definitely makes us want to add this place to our bucket list. If you wish to make others eager to visit the spots you visit, too, look for contrasting colors and lights and shadows next time you take a photo for Google Maps.
Are you curious to learn more about Villa Fogazzaro Roi? Then don’t miss Paolo’s review.
