Meet a Connect Moderator: Lalo

Thanks @Denise_Barlock It has been great meeting you in your meet-ups, they’re really fun!

Don’t think that I have forgotten about the #WorldChallenge, I want to host one, currently I’m busy with school, I’m preparing for an important exam but once I’m done with that I can organize a great Challenge! :grinning: :+1:

Hi @LaloPadilla , pleased to meet you!

We seem to have two passions in common: visiting museums and great heights!
Nice not to suffer from vertigo!

Bye,

David

@LaloPadilla All good :slightly_smiling_face: We’re currently scheduled through 2021. I think the next spot is mid-January? Let me know when you’d like to schedule something in 2022 :slightly_smiling_face: Can’t wait to do Mexico!

Thanks mi amiga @SoniaK !!!, learning a languages while being entertained with movie is a great use of time
Mexico is a great place to visit and as you are learning spanish with movies it will be a unique opportunity to practice it here, and yes, mexicans are fun, we have a weird sense of humor, we always find a way to laugh at everything…even death, on Día de Muertos we write “calaveritas literarias” that are like poems, and they have to be about a friend of yours that is tricking and meaking fun of death.
If I ever travel to outer space I will write a post here on Connect about it with lots photos of course. :man_astronaut: :earth_americas:

Muchas gracias @Jesi !!! Cuando manejas el drone y ves la pantalla mientras se eleva te juro que pierdes el miedo a las alturas.El año pasado leí que iba a haber una exposición de Harry Potter que haría un tour mundial en 2022, de cualquier modo la visita a los estudios sigue siendo obligada.
Me agrada la idea de los meet-ups y la comida cuando vaya a Argentina, ojalá no me robes alguna gorra :wink: , no me molestaría subir un par de kilos por comer delicioso y espero no me detengan en el aeropuerto por regresar con una maleta llena de alfajores.
Desde que iba en el kinder me presentaba como Lalo (aunque a las maestras no les gustara), solo me llaman Luis Eduardo cuando alguien esta molesto conmigo jajaja. Sí, apenas comencé este año, iba a iniciar en agosto del año pasado, pero se me pasó la fecha :neutral_face: y ¡qué bien que tu también estés aprendiendo alemán!, veo que ya se me quedó el Frau Lola, sigo pensando en uno para ti :thinking:

I am actually learning Spanish through Duolingo. But the movies are helping me to understand the language and culture better. Also, I think it’s easy to pick up a language from a native speaker, rather than from an application.

I will wait for your post on Connect for your outer space travel, @LaloPadilla . Hope you can make it one day. :crossed_fingers:

What a wonderful interview @InaS !

I’m very glad to know more about you @LaloPadilla ! That’s amazing to have you in the team!

I also love visiting museums when I travel! And I’m looking for observation decks to enjoy views from highest points!

Wishing you all the best and hope to meet you in real life one day after corona!

Thanks @AdrianLunsong ! I don’t want to spoil it to someone that is reading comments, I loved the final it was a great but a little bit tangled story :joy:

I like when series are well structured and only last the necessary seasons that they need to tell the story otherwise they become boring.

@Denise_Barlock Mid-January sounds good, I’ve enough time to prepare everything! I’ll send you amessage to organize it

@SoniaK I have online classes and I use Duolingo too! , I like the vocabulary feature, that shows you all the words that you have learned, but obvoulsy practicing with a native speaker is the best option.

Thanks for your kind comments guys @PritishB @ShahriarAzadEvan !!!

@LuigiZ It would be awesome to write a review about Voyager Station :thinking: :grinning: just with the view it already gets 5 stars.

I agree with you Luigi/Luis is a wonderful name! , let’s create the “Luigi not-so secret society”. Are you in @LuisMGonzalez :joy: ?

Hi Moderators,

I want to ask a question regarding my account, i’ve been told by Googlemaps twitter account to ask and reply in any post, so later anyone can help me regarding this matter of problem on me.

so my Problem is, right now I’m using my work account that I’ve never used to as localguide account because my main account as localguides is currently being banned when accessing this forum ? i don’t even know why, because suddenly my main email account is suspended. so I need to use this account just to ask in here.

And to note that, I already even have appealed thru the Google Form, and I already got the reply that my account is not suspended and my contribution is still there. but I still can’t seem to have my localguides back to my main account in https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/101063779230267872561 , can you help me regarding this matter ?

this is the email:

so I’ve been wondering why I’ve been banned, I’m kinda sad with it and I already remorse with it, and hopefully I can be fully reinstated back again as local guides.

Thanks @davidhyno ! Have you skydived? It’s on my bucketlist, I hope to do it this year

When I was a child I didnt like heights but now I enjoy every activity that involves being several meters above the ground

I can´t believe there are people that don´t like to look through the airplane window because the height, it’s the best view!

Hi @LaloPadilla !
No, I’ve never skydiving!
It attracts me a lot, but I still consider it a bit dangerous: I still have so many things to do before jumping into the void! :grin:

Bye,

David

Una maravilla leer más sobre ti @LaloPadilla y coincidir contigo en la pasión que sientes por Google Maps.

Me ha encantado leer que te gusta visitar los lugares desde la zona más alta posible; así tienes una vistas espectaculares y logras hacerte una mejor composición del lugar.

Has finalizado fantásticamente con tu anécdota del alemán*“Does that count as eavesdropping?” :joy: :rofl:*

Felicidades por este nuevo rol que tienes, te va como anillo al dedo :blush:

Un fuerte abrazo desde el Sur de España,

Alejandra.

Gracias @Cecilita !

Me agrada la idea Ceci, en tu lista que nos llego a los 149,999,999 Local Guides hay muchos museos para elegir, veamos cuantos se pueden visitar y lograr que la barra que aparece en las listas avance un poco! Y no me puedo ir sin probar el mate y un buen asado

Exactamente esa es una de las razones @AlejandraMaria , al usar Google Earth se puede tener una experiencia similar, pero nada como ver el lugar en la vida real y poder ver los lugares más importantes desde lo alto. Ahí estaba yo en la oficina sin entender nada de alemán pero muy atento a las conversaciones de los managers jajaja. Gracias por tus comentarios y qué bueno tenerte de vuelta en Connect!

Thanks a lot @doc_dells I’ll do my best!

Take care
