Well, the simplest answer is: I like to help.
Ever since I was a child I was taught 2 things that are going with me until today: Learn from your mistakes & Teach others about them.
So I took those 2 lessons with me all the way, and added an extra part: not only from mistakes - but successes as well.
When I started traveling on my own around the globe, Google Maps and Tripadvisor weren’t all that big of deals, and people were still relying on books and paper maps (Weird huh?), so mainly I wrote. And passed it on to friends and family, and even randomly online to people.
What did I pass? Experiences!
Good ones, bad ones, as objective as possible as well as subjective. The whole deal. Because we learn best from experiences, so why not pass it on?
Found a cool place to see that isn’t enlisted on the traveling books everyone is using? Pass it on!
Found a home-like restaurant with lovely service and owners? Pass it on!
Found a really horrible place with paid recommendations? People should definitely know about it.
All bad and good things, so people can learn.
And here’s the thing I found out: The good businesses thrived and the lousy ones changed! People listened and took action. People cared!
And I realized the more I explain, and suggest things, people listen and actually act upon them, and thanked me, and to be honest… it felt good. Yeah a bit to the ego as well, but hey, I helped! So it counts as a good thing too I think 
Then I found Tripadvisor and it blew me away! I started using it heavily, explaining in details how the places are and tips for areas, published new places sometimes as well.
And from there well… Google Maps appeared to me in it’s full glory.
And people use Google Maps more no? So I should probably write there as well! Share more, get to a bigger crowd, help more people!
I write a lot (as you can see…) but I write with passion and careful thought behind it.
I don’t want to find the best burger in town, or the prettiest building or some secret tunnel to a hidden location.
I want to help others. I want good places to thrive and less good places to become better. I want people to avoid the bad experiences I had which are completely avoidable, and enjoy the good ones when they’re possible. I want to make the world a better place.
I don’t have plenty of time usually (between work and university, and life itself), so when I do get out - I make the best of it, and then spend a few minutes to make it better for someone else if I can.
And in the end, changing the world for the better starts with small steps…
