Introduce Yourself — August 2022

[MashaPS]

Hi everyone! Welcome to Local Guides Connect. Please take a moment to introduce yourself to our community.

As “Introduce Yourself” threads can be lengthy, we start a new one each month and lock past threads. You can check previous threads, like July's, to see who recently joined and where they’re from. We’ll merge any “I’m new” and “Hello world” posts we find elsewhere with this thread to keep things organized.

Do you want to be featured in our monthly Introduce Yourself posts? Share your introduction in the comments, following the five prompts below, and a horizontal photo of yourself (in landscape mode). We will select one of the best introductions and include it in our next month’s post. Please note: Your response may be edited for clarity. By taking part in this challenge, you agree to us sharing your answers and photo(s) publicly here on Connect.

This month, meet @cherrypie! Danila is a Local Guide Level 7, and here’s what they shared about themselves. 

Caption: A photo of Danila by a lake at sunset. (Local Guide @cherrypie)1. Name: Hi everyone! My name is Danila.

2. Location: Milan, Italy

3. What I love about being a Local Guide: Besides showing love for my favorite places in my city, sometimes I love to look back at my reviews and read the details of what I enjoyed the most on my trips. It's like a diary!

4. My favorite thing to explore: I love hiking and tropical destinations. So my favorite activity when I'm traveling is hiking to find secluded beaches or beautiful viewpoints. Also, I do my best to always try local food, and I'm always on the lookout for the most authentic restaurant. This also applies to Italy! My current project is finding the best pizza in Milan. 😊

5. Fun fact about me:I will never not point and wave at every dog I see on the street, and possibly try to pet it. Not sorry!

Nice to meet you, Danila! Local Guides, don’t miss the chance to say hi to Danila in the comments below and to share your introduction, too.

Hello friends, 

I am glad to sharing my local guide me experience with you, as now I am on level 4 and I have earn two badges so now I think I am able to share my thoughts with you guys. I think travelling and exploring the new location, new culture, new wheather and meeting with new people is one the best therapy for a person who is buzy in his life as he is doing a regular job, applying the same routine on his/her day to day life but when he travelled and disturbing his daily routine that experience of living at a new place, meeting with new people that is really marvelous and at that time #Googlemaps plays an important role because sometimes when a person goes astray from his destination at that moment Google maps help that person and local guides like us help them to find the way to reach their destination and also we help them to choose the best hotel with best services in affordable price, best restaurant and bar for hangout, best places to visit at that location so that they never forget that time, that moment which they spent there. So, I wanna thank you all and especially #google #google

Thank you all
