Introduce Yourself — April 2018

[anisoprano]

Hello everyone ! My name is Ani Tsartsidze and I am from Georgia, based in Germany, Düsseldorf. 

I am an opera singer and I always travel a lot. I have concerts, performances, auditions and I love to show people all those places where I spend time. I also love to share all theatre insights while I am singing there, I think that's interesting for people. I am doing that  gladly when I see that people are actually watching my pictures more than 10000 times.   Being local guide is just an amazing thing to say true facts about all those places where I have been. I think because of all local guides that are doing the same, we can trust google more than other sources of advertisements.

I am Mauricio an almost 50! My experience in Local guides has been very interesting, since I discovered that I really like to take pictures and make comments about the places I visit, so I also discovered that I could help others improve their experience by visiting those places. Today I feel very good to be level 8 and have more than 6M views of my photos.

Hello!!! Introduction here-

My name is Melodie and I live in the bay area, Oakland to be more exact...YAY!!

I think helping folks that come after me with a review or a photo -- or my most recent addiction, answering questions about a place I've been is at the top of the list as to why I love being a Local Guide -- but, I have to admit, for a person that really isn't into video games I do get a small thrill from collecting points-- so the level up aspect is definitely a selfish pursuit.

Fun fact - I still think Time Cop is a great movie 😄

I'll start by saying I'm glad to be part of it!

My name is Gagandeep Singh.

To be sincerer becoming a local guide was something casual. Generally I don't Google Maps sometimes because sometimes it  started giving me the  wrong suggestion and when I find it that the wrongly suggestion given or the place that was not being there or has been removed can be edited by an user. Since then the Journey of me as a local guide begins I've written some reviews and taken a pair of pictures, has edited some of the places that has not been existed but listed on maps, but what I like the most is when I read that human help is needed: I like to think that someone really needs me and that I can be helpful to someone.

I've enjoyed been a local guide until now but I think I don't understand totally the limits of it, which, in fact... is interesting!
