Hello Local Guides Friends
This July is very special as it’s the 5th birthday of Connect!
To appreciate and celebrate our love and friendship, we together have made this video. I’m publishing this on behalf of each one of you.
Words cannot express but the contributions from my fellow Local Guides say it all.
Despite being in different parts of the world, connect truly connects us as one big united family!
Watch the video till the end for a surprise!!!
I want to thank each and everyone who has contributed to making this precious gift to mark five years on connect with excitement and joy.
Special thanks to @StephenAbraham for the video script. Thanks to @KashifMisidia for this idea and @Tejal for being helpful from start to finish.
It’s been a great journey and we look forward to more fun in the coming years.
