Why become a Spotter?

We can think of many reasons why someone who likes writing & their city should join us as a Spotter… but the best people to ask of course are our Spotters!

Here are some quotes from applications we’ve received recently:

🇽🇰 “I was born and raised in Prishtina. Growing up here and spending all my life in this city has made it take a dear place in my heart. I would love to write about it and share with other people what I find most amusing about it.”

🇲🇰 “I’m an architect and I’m deeply saddened by the new architecture in Skopje. I truly believe Skopje has much more to offer and I want to show that to the world.”

🇭🇺 “I love the concept of Spotted by Locals and I have used it many times during my travels so I decided that since I am back living in Budapest, I would be interested in contributing to the site.”

🇦🇲 “I hate to waste my time going to pointless places and spend my money on garbage when I am travelling. But it’s hard to avoid that. I want to help others to keep away from that as well.”

🇧🇪 “I came to Ghent as a student and fell in love with the city. Ghent feels like a little village with nice spots to relax, have a drink or even go for a walk in nature. People are so nice and there are so many little jewels that tourists don’t know about that I would like to share with this little community.”

🇦🇲 “Although I left a city where I planted deep roots, I find rediscovering your identity in a new city can be one of the more rewarding experiences to go through.”

🇵🇱 “I thought I would apply to your site as I really do enjoy writing and photography and this seems like a wonderful outlet where I can be helpful to other people.”
