Being a local guide has enabled me to express my love for sharing information and educating people and also acquiring knowledge in the process. I’ve always loved taking photographs of my environment. Taking overhead shots with a drone or 360 panoramic images enables me show a different perspective to the environment and I love the joy it brings even to the locals when they see their location in relation to the wider world. I Set out over a year ago to highlight the beauty of Etsako Local governement area in Nigeria. I have a sentimental attachment to this place because its my place of origin and its so beautiful with lots of amazing rock formations. This part of Nigeria is relatively remote and the people are peaceful and very welcoming. I’m hoping to cover as much as this local government area on Street view and to give its natural resources as much exposure as i possibly can.
