What does being a local guide mean to me

As someone that’s traveled all over the United States to about 30 different states in numerous cities, having traveled to Canada, Japan, Australia, and Panama, I have always had a passion for different cultures, societies, people, food, festivities, architecture, weather, and the overall living conditions that people subject themselves to and enjoy.

until I found this Google community I wasn’t able to share with people my passion for traveling and my perception on the places I’ve been. Having a slight passion photography it allows me to also take pictures of places I’ve been to help get more awareness of places that people don’t normally think of. I like to think of myself as someone who is well-rounded having traveled so much and eaten so many different kinds of food and being able to use this platform to tell people what food to go for and what food to stay away from also has a great privilege I take very seriously.

what this means to me is being able to reach out to people all over the world with my experiences and expertise on things I’ve seen and done. Being able to help others see the world that they can’t see and find out about things they never would have known about.
