  1. Name: Sinan
  2. Location: Izmir, Turkey
  3. What do I love about being a Local Guide: I firstly started this adventure just to fix faulty places on the maps, to have a better maps experience when I need. Then, I expanded my use of maps by commenting/advising on existing places and adding fresh photos to keep my neighbourood up to date. Now, I'm here and a local guide to help people occasionally (either for their troubles about maps or travel questions about my country/city) 
  4. I love to share: I share almost everything related to a topic when that topic is on the go. I also share my individual experience by proper photos and texts to show local experiences. When someone needs help, I firstly ask a question to myself that if I'm capable of that topic. If yes, then I explain the topic with justifications.
  5. How did I hear about Local Guides: I'm actually a newcomer but achieved plenty of badges in a short time as I find here so beneficial and cozy. I used to have foursquare android apk to advise or find new things for places but then moved to here as I can receive a recompense for my work from Google.  
  6. Fun Fact About Me: Lol, I'm a human and couldn't find how to rotate this photo here :dMy cat "Minnosh" and IMy cat "Minnosh" and I
