1 Name: Jonathan
2 Location: Bangkok Thailand
3) What I love about being a local guide is I get to contribute to Google Maps which I use everyday and a critical tool for when I travel. I also like to express my opinions and recommend great places to other people.
4) The traffic in Bangkok being so congested, checking on the traffic information on Google maps had become a daily sport for me. After a major Google maps update last year, the traffic lines have become too thin and difficult to see. I was the person who wrote in to suggest the traffic lines be thickened. Engineers at Google fixed this shortly and thanked me for my feedback.

- Name: Mohamed Althaf
- Location: Dharga Town, Sri Lanka.
- About Myself: I'm an accountant of a Restaurant in Beruwala Sri Lanka. My restaurant is actively very famous for South Asian Foods. And I am looking after business development and operation of my restaurant
- Being a Local Guide: I am really busy with my regular job and. Meanwhile I'm really interested in Social Media such as Google, Facebook, Twitter and so on. In these media's I really interested to Google maps because when I'm travelling every time I find my locations with the help of Google Maps. After sometime I learned about Local Guide Contribution, So I started doing the same what Google Maps did to me with an intention to help people around the world.In my country its so unusual to take Snap of a place or a Road or somewhere else when I'm gonna take picture people really think that I'm doing an useless work it never stops me of contributing to Google maps. when I tried to point out a location, I took pictures in different angle from road side so observing a picture can guide someone to found location easily. Also, for any tourist spot its necessary to get the right pictorial understanding either someone will be interested or should avoid the place. And today I know I am contributing many people without knowing them individually. It is really a great achievement being a local guide for Google.
- What I love to do: I love to capture some beautiful snaps when I visit a place, so not only picture rather some additional information may support the evidence and I Review them Publicly.
- Fact about me: I love to explore new place, new country, new people. So, as I am fully dependent on google map, others as well. So, I do not necessarily take pictures on specific place rather take pictures while travelling so it’s a tracking of full map.
- Looking forward: I want meet GOOGLE talents, explorer, around the world through this Forum #ConnectWithLocalGuide
Hey you all guys!
I've just sign up in LG connect, but it's been a long time since I started to be a Local Guide.
Let me introduce myself 😊
- My Name is Mike Hermida
- Location: and I live in the city with the most important port in México: Veracruz, and I'm so happy about thatx even though in summer we reach the 40°C 😎😥 that's too hot.
- What do I love about being a Local Guide: Help people and being helped, cause I'm sure that all our reviews together help others who don't know a place or a City, to make an idea of how it does look like, how people move, how peolpe live and everything. And I say that I'm sure, because i've checked places' reviews before visiting them, and when I go, I realize that what I read, is what I'm living. I also love to be asked by friends in school about a place, about my experience in other city and also to hear what they can tell !e abpua other places I haven't been yet.
- I love to share: I love to share everything I can, photos, reviews, and everything.
- How did I hear about Local Guides: On Google maps, I used to have another account and I was in local guide with that one too, then I had to use this new one, and one of the first things I did was to become a LG again.
