My 3 Reasons to be a Local Guide!

Hello all!

I want to keep it simple and short - here are my top reasons to contribute to Google Maps:

  1. Pictures say more than thousand words: I like adding pictures and reviews to restaurants, bars, cafés because I want people to have the same amazing experience I had and also what they can expect if they go there as well!
  2. Favorite lists: instead of looking up your favorite place every single time you recommend it to someone else, you can easily create a wonderful list of must-go places to share with friends, family and colleagues! You can even add a comment what they should eat or drink at that specific place!
  3. Playful Google Maps: I like answering the questions about a specific restaurant, whether it is a kids-friendly restaurant, vegetarian options, alcoholic drinks served at the restaurant or more - just answer a few quiz-like questions because sharing is caring!

In case you are interested in my favorite go-to’s in Vienna, Austria, just leave a reply below! Happy to share my favorite restaurants, bars and more.

@Lingw93 great reasons. Keep it going!

Hi @Lingw93 ,

Welcome to Connect!

As this seems to be your first post in the community, you probably are not aware, but Connect is a place where Local Guides usually discuss topics related to Travel, Photography, Food & Drinks and many more. So before posting on, please get familiar with the following articles: 14 helpful tips for using Connect and What are Connect topics?. I would like to invite you to introduce yourself here Introduce Yourself - January 2020.

I am going to relabel your post to the Local Stories section in order to keep Connect organized.

I’ve noticed also that your post have a German language label, so I removed it. If you want to know more about the language labels I recommend you to read the article How do I find posts in my preferred language?
