Name: Stefan
Location: Bucharest, Romania

I love to share: I admit I love the share everything I can and I know. Reviews? Of course. Photos? Sure - Sometimes I walk trough the city with the camera in my hand shooting every place to add photos and share them with the world! 
How did I hear about Local Guides: I was using Maps almost on a daily basis, and then I started to add reviews. Then I wanted to add a place I knew about, and found about Local Guides. I signed in and never looked back. Since then I was and I am an active Local Guide. I'm not stopping either. 
Fun Fact About Me: I like to observe the world around me and travel. This also leads to more info on Maps, but also to more people looking weird sometimes at me while I photograph every single thing to have more images to share with you.
