Welcome to LG family @Venturesome_Dudu.

Picture is full of beauty. You can post these kind of lovely photos in Photos and Discoveries section also. But before posting you need to read this.

You can attach your personal photo with this intro if you wish.

Happy to see you here. Happy mapping!

Hi everyone 🙂

1. Name: Dudu
2. Location: Johannesburg (aka Joburg/Jozi), South Africa
3. What do I love about being a Local Guide: Being able to write helpful reviews so people are able to better see what Joburg really has to offer.
4. I love to share: Insightful reviews (incorporating ambience and what makes a particular place special) and pictures that give your eyes a treat.
5. How did I hear about Local Guides: By total chance. I just randomly kept reviewing places and then voila, Local Guides appeared - almost like the digital version of Narnia, ha!
6. Fun Fact About Me: I have a deep interest in African cities, and how they seem to carve out their own paths as the people who inhibit them have found unique methods of making use of city spaces (this is fun, right?).

What we are missing in this intro is your personal picture.

But if you don't wish then this fine also. hahaha

Thanks for your contributions to map also.

See you around.

Happy mapping!

Hi Folks,

My name is Jamie and I am brand new to this community so please help me if I post in the wrong place!

2. Location: Suffolk, United Kingdom
3. What do I love about being a Local Guide: I enjoy sharing pictures from my travels and love seeing other pictures for travel inspiration. 
4. I love to share: I travel extensively for pleasure (when I am not working) and love taking and sharing photos. I constantly aim to improve the quality of my photos and enjoy testing out new technologies. I am currently playing with the Insta 360 camera, DJI Phantom 3 and a pair of Snapchat Specs as well as the iPhone! 
5. How did I hear about Local Guides: I just started adding photos to maps and then I found the community. Despite reading the emails I hadn't realised this place existed until today! 
6. Fun Fact About Me: I am combining my passion for travel, photography on my blog www.winetravelandsong.com as well as trying to revive the art of travel writing. I went to LA for the first time last year and fell in love with the place, something I didn't expect to happen!

Delighted to meet you all 🙂
