Hi @NareshDarji

It is my pleasure, thank you for taking the time to check it out Naresh. It was a really enjoyable experience, especially sharing it with other Google Maps Local Guides in Japan too. Plus all the excellent information at the displays at Customs House were very enlightening, so it is very rewarding to share it with you all. 

Best wishes

Hi @Julien44

Thank you for your kind words and support. Thank you also for offering that you felt you were in Sydney for this International Day of Culture Google Maps Local Guides Connect meetup. It is such a wonderful thing knowing there are people from all around the world who are with us in spirit through Local Guides. I hope one day Google has a summit in Sydney and you all get to join us and experience it with Local Guides! That would be fun! 

I hope to see you here in your travels some time with all your loved ones to share the experience as well. I will be your Local Guide in Sydney, Australia. I also hope to come to France and you can Guide me there too. 

Best wishes

Hi @Badruddeen

Thank you for your kind words and support. You are always very inspirational in all you do here in Google Maps Local Guides Connect for everyone. The international Day of Culture meetup was excellent in Sydney Customs House. That is a place I hope to take you and your loved ones to visit if I get a chance to Guide you when you all come to Sydney, Australia. 

I absolutely loved Coober Pedy, South Australia, when we were there in our travels around Australia. It is so interesting and the people are so wonderful! I loved staying there, all the opal mining and visiting all the houses and Hotels and even churches under ground too. Super fun! Thank you for bringing back fond memories! 

The Aboriginals have a beautiful culture, so interesting and absolutely incredible in their celebration of life and our land. I love their music, art and dance! They are a truly inspirational, motivational and knowledged people, we can and do learn so much from them. It was excellent to watch them work with the people from many nations in the Festival of Unlikely Conversations, teaching them to dance and celebrate as they do, so much laughter and fun for everyone involved, as you see from the video, sensational results. I am so happy you enjoyed it too. 

Best wishes
