Hello All,

I Been a member of the Local guides for quite some time and Joined LocalGuidesConnect a bit long ago. I missed to introduce myself to the community so here we go.

So here are the details about me,

Name: Dhipin K Das

Location: Kochi, Kerala, India

About me: I am basically a mobile app developer specialised in iOS. When I get free time, I Log in to MIUI community and been an active member there. Had been a moderator to that community until last week. I am more into travelling now as I like to visit new places as I play Ingress with the name Shad0wStriker. I start using google maps a very long back and be map editing using mapmaker until it was discontinued. Now I am specialising in Google maps edit, to make my locality more accurate and useful for others who are using the map. Recently I bought a camera and looking forward to contributing more pictures to google maps as it will be more helpful. I am hoping to be a good contributor to Google maps and the LocalGuidesConnetn community. Hope it will come true. I heard about local guides via a Kerala Local Guides community gathering and I hope to be more live and active in the local community. So, that is all that is from me. Hoping to meet new people and be more active in the forum.

That's Me 🙂

Thank You,

Dhipin

1. Name: David
2. Location:  Hertfordshire, United Kingdom
3. What I love about being a Local Guide: Giving a presence to places or foods and drinks in a place  (restaurants, and pubs and other eateries) that people may not know about and in doing so, discovering new places other people have recommended. 
   
4. I love to share: A mixture of reviews and photos, as detailed and as close to my heart about a place so that people get a fair impression. Sometimes the photos may be more artistic, sometimes true to real life
5. How did I hear about Local Guides: I saw one of the early latch posts a year or two ago and thought it was me, so joined and have not looked back since
   
6. Fun Fact About Me: I am probably the biggest Doctor Who Nerd in my family (at least from 80s to present day episodes), understandable as I live in the UK

Hallo,

auch ich möchte mich vorstellen, sammler Guide-Punkte schon ein paar Monate, habe aber nie so richtig verstanden, was die Community noch so alles macht 🙂

Also, ich bin Stefan,

komme aus der Gegend von Kassel, Nordhessen, Germany

Vielseitig interessiert, vor allem habe ich das Laufen für mich entdeckt. Laufe regelmäßig und zumindest einen Halbmarathon pro Jahr.

Ich gebe meine Erfahrungen und Erlebnisse aus der Region oder meinen  Reisezielen gerne weiter, damit andere davon profitieren können.

Viele Grüße

Stefan
