As a local guide in a small country, I quickly discovered, that my judgement was actually influencing peoples opinion. I understood the responsability behind this power and became more detailed and accurate in my descriptions, alway being 100% honest. I have significantly helped new places like restaurants, sports facilities or events to become more known and get more visitors or members just like I have been able to warn against places delivering garbage for expensive money. I am today more alert and always have my mobile ready for a good shot when I visit new places regardless where. I am no longer a local guide. I judge where ever I am.
