As "Introduce Yourself" threads get quite long, we start new ones monthly and lock the old ones. Be sure to check the old threads, such as the August one, to see who already joined and where they are from (simply run a search with "Introduce Yourself" as keyword). If you're new in Connect, please use this thread to post your "I'm new" or "Hello world" posts. We will move any posts we find into here to keep the site organized.
Hi everyone! Welcome to Local Guides Connect. Please take a moment to introduce yourself to the community.
To start, let me introduce myself:

What do I love about being a Local Guide: I love the fact that my voluntary contributions of review's, photos, adding of places, checking the facts I make to the Google maps is helping millions of people in the world day by day! This brings me great excitement and happiness!!!!I
I love to share: I love adding places that are not yet listed on the Google maps, so that when other people try to find that place, they can locate it easily. Whenever I visit a place, I like leaving a helpful review about the place so that other people can have a view about the place.
How did I hear about Local Guides: I downloaded the Google maps app and when I saw the start contributing icon, I clicked and started doing my part to make the world a easier place for people to locate with adequate and reliable information.
Fun Fact About Me: I love travelling, visiting tourist attractions, discovering hidden gems and driving true remote areas to discover nature at its best. I am a nature addict. I have a great sense of humor as well and when with me it's always fun all the way 🙂

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.
