Hi friends!
I am a proud level 5 Google Guide from Kolkata,India. Proud and naive must I say! Even a few days back I had a false notion of being a more alert person than others to search and find great places; as I work with The most powerful web tool for searching things and places as a Local Guide. But only after getting the call from Google about ‘Connect live 2019’ I came to know about this place! this beautiful place on net of like minded local guides named localguidesconnect.com; surely an eye-opener for me to tell me that I have a long way to go. Thanks a lot Google!
I started working as a local guide casually, just for fun’s shake. But gradually I felt an increasing urge to share my reviews of the places I visited and thus helping others who are looking for the same. perhaps showing unknown people the ‘truth’ about a place somehow helps me to satisfy my desire to ‘connect’ with others.
I share all sorts of places that I visit; be it a local food joint, or a remote Himalayan village that I visited or a fair in festive seasons… my reviews are of wide spectrum of subjects but my most favorite subject is sharing reviews on hotels where I stayed while travelling. I travel a lot with my family and hence I choose my stays based on several criteria like, comfort, location, safety and of course best value for money; in a way, I am a bit picky about hotels and the most handy tool for searching my kind of hotels are none but our good old Google maps.
I rely on the reviews of a specific hotel a lot and that’s why it is really important to get honest and vivid description of the hotel as it helps me to visualize the hotel from a distance. While staying, if I find any discrepancy with that visualization of the place I definitely put that in my review to share the ‘truth’ about it.
When I get appreciation of my reviews from unknown people I feel a sense of satisfaction of performing my duty towards good people.I take a hell of a lot of time to zero down to a hotel; So dear friends, if you are visiting one of those places that I have visited, please go truth my reviews of the hotels and be sure that my recommendations are reliable and perhaps the best choice to stay. I am sharing a few pictures of my favorite hotels for your reference.
I am really looking for the ‘Connect live 2019’ as if I get selected then it would be a great opportunity to review some placed that I never dreamt of reviewing.
