Why do I even bother leaving reviews?

Why bother, right? Well let me share my thoughts.

1. Help how you want to be helped

I don’t even know myself how many times Google Maps and Google Maps community helped me to shape my travels. I am extremely grateful for every review, because it helps me to decide weather it is worth visiting or no. The same way it helps me, the same way I want to give back and help others. That is the only way how we can get to know some of the most extraordinary places.

2. Find best places in the world

Remember that time when you didn’t know what to visit next and there was no Tourist office around. What did you do? Probably what many of us do. Took the phone out of your pocket, opened Google Maps and checked what is out there.

This process is a few seconds long, but enough to find some of the best places in the world.

3. Have fun doing it

Writing is not for everyone, and certainly not for me, but I have a lot of fun expressing my opinions and at the same time helping people. Remember, we are not only helping travelers, but also the hosts, owners, to know what they should do better and how they can improve. Waiting for coffee to be done? Waiting for the train? Hey, why not leave some reviews?

Hello @Marko5 ,

Thank you for sharing with us, since you travels a lot which city or country that you left the best impression for you?, from my personal travel experience the one country that left the best impression to me is Japan.

I would like to ask, is this post written for the Connect Live 2019 Application?

Hi @AngieYC ,

For me would definitely had to be (for now) Australia. I was recently there and it was amazing.

You are absolutely correct, it is post for Connect Live 2019 Application.
