Hello everyone, my name is Tanya. I am a russian girl from Novosibirsk city and i am a travel lover. Most of the time i spend traveling and i really enjoy planning of my trips. Finding interesting place on the internet, reading more about it and finally seeing it yourself.
I create my own lists, mark the most interesting places on the map and add my notes. 3 month ago i realized that such lists could and should be shared. Now after each my travel i publish my lists on Google Maps and on my blog on Instagram.
Each of my lists is unique for its life hacks and tips for visiting places.
For example, in the list from Indonesian island - Nusa Penida i told how how to fully enjoy a very beautiful beach - Diamond. The fact is that before going there, it is very important to look at the tide schedule, as the water goes very low tide and instead of azure water you risk to see only stones.
You can see this beach in good time on the photo
I also like to share contact of interesting places for stay. In my lists i often mark coordinates of hotels and apartments. So for example, in my list of Dubai city i told how you can stay in room with such city view only for 30$ per night. You can see this view on my photo. It’s amazing, isn’t it?
One of my favourite advice is how to make photo without another people in the most popular tourist locations, and i also notice about it in my lists. So, you can see how i can do it on my photos.
Aquarium in Dubai Mall in Dubai
Taj Mahal in Agra, India
Sheikh Zayed Mosque in Abu Dhabi, UAE
All these places usually very crowded, but i know some secrets and i am happy to have a opportunity to share it.
Of course it’s important to visit the most famous tourists places, when you come to new country or city, but the most interesting thing which i’ve done as Local Guide it’s discover new, secret and little-known places. There was one in my last list for small Vietnam town - Dalat. You can see it on the pictures, it really looks like fairy forest.
Since I started posting links of my lists on my blog on Instagram, I am getting about 10 thanks every day for my work. Of course it inspires me to share more and more information from travels. Every time opening for people the most beautiful places of our planet, i think that is the main mission of Google Maps, and very grateful to Google for the opportunity to do what I do.
