Benefit of the Maps Pin

I warmly welcome @Arnittraveller, who is fortunate enough to join Connect on the 20th birthday of Google Maps!

On February 4th, I visited Rashtrapati Bhavan, New Delhi. While I was in the souvenir shop at the reception area, a person approached me and asked, “Sir, at which level are you?” I told him my level—8—and asked how he knew I was a Local Guide. He pointed to my Maps pin.

Since no one had noticed it for a long time, I had almost forgotten that it was on my coat. As he was with his friends, he took my number. Today, I received his call, and during our conversation, I told him about Maps’ birthday and shared the Connect joining link with him. He joined the platform.
