Hello, I’m Deepa Iyer from Bangalore, India. I am an actress in the local language daily soaps. I consider myself as a travel freak. My wanderlust and my profession combined together helps me interact with the people around and socialize more. I trek into the deep forests of western ghats (mostly), The Himalayan range and many more. Most of the places I visit are remote areas which are usually unavailable on the Google maps. These include all the sacred places as well. Hence, I would want to add the routes and key features to the maps about these remote splendid picturesques. Lending out the delicate information is not everyone’s cup of tea. I love being a source of information. Meeting new people and knowing their culture excites me. Sharing this information to the global society gives me thrills. Being a local guide through Google influences me to share more information and collect more details. Thank you Google for giving me this opportunity to present myself.
