How you first met with other Local Guides in Connect?

Hi wonderful Local Guides!

I am Mohammed Salmaan Nawaz from India. In Connect, we share our ideas, experience on Local Guides Program and get to meet so many Local Guides day by day. We get a long with many of them in Connect but most of the time, we forget how we first met. Today, I am going to share some of the experience which I remember knowing a Local Guide for first time. I will start with @BishowvijayaP on how I met him in Connect for first time. He is one of the great Local Guides who I know closely. Few months ago, One Local Guide started a post named Which is better in Google Maps, LG Points or Photo Views? In that, I expressed my opinion as Photo Views are better. And then, BishowvijayaP replied as LG Points are better. We then had a long debate on this topic and that is the first time I met him in Connect. At that time, I didn't know that I would become this much close to him. He is such an amazing person.

The second one, I remember meeting a Local Guide for first time in Connect is @HelloSamsonR. He is a wonderful Local Guide who I know. It was a day before the Summit17 results. A best ever memorable post created by @OSAMA bro named Silence before Storm. At that time, we were very excited for Summit result. I was searching every email to know if I would have missed any LG mail 😄 Samson show up everytime and tell us to wait for result. And that is when I first met him in Connect. It is a pleasure to know him. 

The third one, I remember meeting a Local Guide for first time in Connect is @Justine2807. Justine is a best motivating Local Guide who I know. It was the time when Local Guides who all participated in Worldwide Geo Walk posted their Recaps and I get to see a Recap Worldwide Geo Walk Sydney by Justine. I replied to that post and said about the beautiful meetup photos which she shared. From that day, I feel lucky to know her. 

This much I remember about the first time I met a Local Guide in Connect. Tell me, how you met the other Local Guides in Connect for first time. Share here even if you remember atleast one and tag them. Thanks for reading my experience. Happy Guiding! Happy Contributing! :))

I always feel that bonding of love when ever I'm interacting with a LG.

Thanks a lot, @Sagir bhai. You are right, this friendship will last forever. I was thinking to write about you too but I then remembered that we first met on Worldwide Google Maps hangouts call and later then in Connect. 😄 I too feel the same bonding with all of you! :))
