Re: Introduce Yourself - March 2017

Hello everyone !

  1. Name: Gérald Mardirossian
  2. Location: Paris, France
  3. What do I love about being a Local Guide: I never thought that I could help anyone just by taking pictures while walking in the streets of my town. Now I know for sure that just a few photos can make a huge impact on the search and can really been of use for thousands of people from all over the world. That’s awesome.
  4. I love to share: I love to share photos of unique places that haven’t been mapped yet (as If was the one discovering them and making them available for the rest of the world)
  5. How did I hear about Local Guides: I was googling for things about pictures and also about what we can do with Google…and that’s how I bump into to Google Local Guides.
  6. Fun Fact About Me: I thought I was bad at taking photos but well….practice makes it perfect and I must have improved by skills since I discovered Google Local Guide.

Re: Introduce Yourself - March 2017

Hi everyone,

I've been lurking in the shadows for a while so time to introduce myself has come!

 

Name:Jessy YOKOLE.jpg Jessy YOKOLE

 

Location: New York, USA (temporary, I'm actually French)

 

What do I love about being a Local Guide: Tech, Food and Photography are some of my main hobbies. And I also like to help people. Therefore, being a Local Guide enables me to merge all of that in a single activity. Friends often come to me when they're looking for great restaurants or some new things to do so I figured I might as well help as many people as possible :-).

 

I love to share: Food Pictures are what I share the most, closely followed by reviews. They complement each other very well so why skip one? Pictures enhanced with Snapseed (to make you drool) and succinct but thorough reviews (short-attention span society...) - not as easy task. 

 

How did I hear about Local Guides: My oldest picture dates from June 2013 so I'm guessing it was around that time I started.

 

Fun Fact About Me: I still can't say my first name 'Jessy' with a correct american accent so everybody thinks I'm called 'Jason'. That is now my official name when I got to Starbucks. No point fighting it ^_^.

  

See you (again for some of you) in a New York event or maybe at the Summit (we never know, I may be lucky)!

 

 

Wanna have a look at my lvl5 Local Guide profile or my new food-focused Instagram?
