I just wanted to say, I have been using Local guides for a while now, however, I feel that I have missed out on the communities after only discovering them today. I wish there was a greater emphasis or even a way to connect to the local guides connect forum directly within the app to allow communication. I guess it is in part my ignorance for not coming on here sooner, however, I see that there is a lot of good content on here and it should be more publically available.
I would even suggest putting such information directly in google maps available for everyone to see as the travelling suggestions and information that is on here would benefit everyone.
