I'll have to share it with my readers. Spending time with locals is one of the best parts about travel for sure. Thanks for telling me about WithLocals! I’ll have to share it with my readers.

I had been hanging out with a friend of mine in Lahore, Pakistan, when his cousin and another one of his friends arrived. We were going around the city, and it started to pour with rain. We took shelter in one of Pakistan's biggest mosques, waiting for the storm to pass - it was hot and sticky. We lay down on the cool marble floor, chatting with each other, when my friend's friend decided to take a selfie! /Users/timblight/Desktop/IMG_3541.jpg Love this!!

I think there could be huge potential for WithLocals in Latin America. I'd love to try it in Peru, for example... would love to dine at a Peruvian family home sometime (love their food!). :) True!

I would really love to have dinner with a local or exploring a city with them. The idea of the company is great!

I love it! Here's a photo of me with a couple of my students on my last day teaching in South Korea. We're engaging in the common activity, loved by Koreans (and young people around the world), of taking a selfie in the middle of class. https://instagram.com/p/lfJjEaS5yI/?taken-by=marieaway What a great concept for a contest!
