I am as a Local Guide.........

A few years ago when I activated as a local guide, I did it with reservations, since I feared for my privacy and that of mine, I was sorry to give my opinions, I was afraid of rejection or rude or ill-intentioned responses from people, but I put aside my fears and broke those paradigms, I decided, I started doing it as a hobby, marking on the map the places I go, where I live, where I work, make reviews, answer user questions, see photos, upload Photos.

  1. Nowadays it is an activity that I do everyday and commonly, I do it with pleasure, with pleasure, I love doing it, I feel that I help other people with my qualifications and comments of the various places I go to and that they help other people , even as a mere reference of what to expect where they are going.

I have always thought that qualifying with a star or with five or with a like, should not be done to do it simply, should be done conscientiously, in a fair, correct and equitable way, since those references are seen by many people and they can make an incorrect decision if my qualification is not true or rigged.

It is gratifying for me to see how I have grown up as a local guide in these years, so much so that I received an invitation from Google to their annual local guides event! It is incredible I could not believe it, but here I am writing something of my history in this activity convinced that helping other people and sharing my experiences and experiences to others really helps them.

I hope to continue with this rewarding activity and be able to involve family and friends, motivate them to make their comments and serve as guides, and among all we can show the different sites and experiences that are in my city Jhelum and my country Pakistan
