For me the Local Guides program is very important because many times I have noticed places in the city or in other cities and the only thing that has helped me to know new places (to eat, to visit, to see) has been Google maps Local Guides. I have also noticed how much I help others when they ask about a place, or when I can make my small contribution to keep Local Guides growing.

Whenever I want to go somewhere, before I check Local Guides’ comments, this has served me for years to go to hotels, restaurants, food venues, cinemas, parks, and especially when I’m in other cities. That’s why the Local Guides program is so important to me. I think that over time it has become a habit or perhaps a way of living to such an extent that I am always reviewing the comments, and if I don’t have them I add them.
