I’m not such a big fan of adventures or the outdoors. So, before I decide to go somewhere I have to verify facts about the place first. How far is it from home? How much does it cost? These are questions I need to have answered before even setting out. With Local Guides, I have access to this information because kind people have taken it upon themselves to document their sojourns so experience does not have to be my best teacher. Simply put, the Local Guides programs grants me a window into the life of others thus in some way influencing my own life.
In addition, I get to be a ‘tour guide’ to other people too and help in the decision making process be it choosing a Hospital, Bank or Restaurant. So, I particularly love that is a two way street, I get the perks of experiencing the world through the lens of others while sharing my life too. That’s a win-win if you ask me!
Cheers Local Guides!
