My Experience as a Local guide

I started to upload my photos in 2016 because I realized that the city I was living in almost didn’t had information in google maps, so I started taking pictures of some places that were specials to me.

Them, I moved to the nearby city named Teresina, in a neighborhood that was recently inaugurated.

At that time, I looked to google maps and just could see houses. No markets, no restaurants, no parks… just houses. So, every time I saw a new market or a park, I added the location in the map and to me it was gratifying because I knew that more people would buy in that little marked and discover that park.

Nowadays, I am in an exchange program in Colombia and google maps has helped me a lot. When I came here, I barely knew speak Spanish, so I used the comments and reviews in google maps to choose the hostels, restaurants and places to visit.
