At the beginning The local Guide program to me it was an opportunity to tanks back google and serve a community of curios an active people like me.
As many of you I love google, technology and the idea of online community, a network of friends that don’t know each other but are willing to help, so when I read about the local guide program, I thought it was my chance to help google, to make google maps a better tool than it already was.
But after a time it went beyond, I start to visits new places base on the community, and start to share my favorite “secret” places to others. I thought it was a small action, but one day a saw the statistics of how many persons has visit my posts an seen my reviews. Then a realized that I really was helping those places to get discover and many people to find them.
I start as a local guide because I love find small and beautiful places to hang out whit my girlfriend. But now its kind of a hobby, to me been a local guide means be a part of a community, of people like me how love to travel, discover and be curios.
