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 past threads, like November's, to see who recently joined and where they’re from (simply search for "Introduce Yourself"). If you're new, please use this thread to post your “I'm new” or “Hello world” posts. We’ll merge any posts we find elsewhere with this thread to keep things organized.
I'll go first:

What I Love About Being A Local Guide :
I Love The Fact That People Naturally love to Share the Advice (For Free) About where to go for Restaurant, Shopping, & tourist or Just spend quite nice time with family. I love Maps & before Google Maps I buy a Map & (search about Yellow Pages in the hotel 🙂 for every country i visit ,but now its much easier
to see all the world from your mobile navigate the city search about Places & see the real feedback from you about your experiences and you see my feedback , About me this save a lot of Time & Money that spend in searching the internet or reading about the city i will visit , With Google Local Guides We Can Help Millions of People and of course we can help each others as A Local Guides Community
how to tie your shoes & how to use Google maps ( Share location , traffic , contributions) will be critical Life skills for this century and this what i try to teach my Three daughters.
I LOVE TO SHARE :
When My Father died i was a teenager my family give me the Shopping Responsibility with a tight budget to buy all the grocery list, so i practice to search about best quality with best price & now after 20 years i have my own family i still do the same, I LOVE SHOPPING compare prices ,wait the 70% sale
the free parking not crowded places , & i love to share how i enjoy my time with my kids which resturant , children museum , Gardens , Playing Areas .....
How I Hear About Local Guides :
its a funny story : i visit Netherland for business i stay in a nice Hotel and go vegetarian for two days in the 3rd day i go with friend to a turkish restaurant and it was a very very tasty we try the majority of the menu , when i come back i upload the pics on google maps, @ that time i don't know about Local guides after couple of days i receive an email from google : (Thanks for adding photos to Google Maps! Your New Photo is a great addition to google maps Millions of people rely on photos like yours when they search for places. Thanks for sharing your photos with the world. You're invited to join Local Guides! )
I accept the invite without any delay and start to make the world better place as much as i can.
Fun Fcats About Me : one of few men on earth who love & enjoy Playing With kids all the day ( there is a child inside me )
Where to Meet:
See You All Soon in

As we come through to the final month of 2017, this will be our last one for the year, and as we lock our previous month's thread, it's about time we look back at our journey this year, both in our lives and our adventure as a local guide.
Feel free to introduce yourselves with the questions below, and also look back at the previous months to see how people have introduced themselves before, you might realise their introductions are completely different each time! Add your location to this discussion so we can appreciate the great diversity of local guides all around the world. If you're new to Local Guides Connect, this is the perfect place to start. Any posts we find with an introduction will be moved here to keep the forums nice and tidy.
