Happy New Year to all, I believed you had wonderful year end celebrations and getting ready for upcoming 2022.
2021 was challenging but incredible. Despite Covid-19, we all went out and had done many things for 2021. I too, even I did not travel much like before, I still managed to go out and done some activities.
Let’s me take a moment to share about my achievement in 2021, especially for Connect & Google Map.
I had reviewed, added photos and rated more than 220 places into Google Map in 2021.
I had written exactly 138 articles in 2021, about a bit over than 11 articles per month.
Most of my articles related to travel, photography, and food and drink. Those articles were about Cambodia, New Zealand and US ( because I have been to those places). Hopefully I can explore more in 2022.
My most wonderful and rewarding moment on Connect was when my articles being featured on Friday Favourites. In 2021 alone, there were 5 articles being selected and featured by Google Team. That’s incredible feeling to be featured - to be honest! Besides, there are other articles on trending I did not take note.
I kept contributing in 2021 as there were full supports from fellow local guides from the forum and I hope that it is going to be more support in 2022.
Since life is getting busier here, I hope to be able to stay connected and shared regularly in Connect and in Google Map.
I wish you all the best - Happy Guiding for 2022 and many years more to come
@Sophia_Cambodia Thanks for being a good friend and a great contributor here on Connect. I enjoy reading your posts, and the photos that you shared. Hopefully this year we all get to travel more and hopefully meet up someplace.
Thank you dear for being a great support to many of us here on Connect @StephenAbraham and to me. To be honest, without the support and words of appreciations, I just feel that maybe nobody is here and has read my pieces of writing? So, thank you for all the support and motivation throughout the year. Meeting physically? Yes, a good idea and I do hope that we can make it this year - wherever, whenever.
Thank you dear @NareshDarji and @jayasimha78 for all the supports along the way both in 2020 and 2021. I hope to stay active in 2022 even thought I have been busy with my work and daily life
Thank you for being here and there to support me and many of us here throughout the years @PaulPavlinovich if there are awards for being Active and Supportive Connect Moderators, you will surely get one
I’m very happy for your new achievement, you deserve it! I always read your posts with pleasure, even if I don’t always write a comment… Happy New Year to you too, I hope that in 2022 you can have more fantastic achievements, for your life, for your job and on Connect! Ciao!
Buen logro @Sophia_Cambodia !
Te mereces eso y mas con el apoyo que das a este foro. Espero hayas pasado una excelente navidad y un buen fin de año.
Saludos amiga
I cannot find words to express how grateful I have been for your immense support & guidance throughout the years, all of you @TusharSuradkar@KamalHossenR@renata1
I am also very happy that my articles somehow reached you @PattyBlack without you telling I did not know that you have read them
@Chuytorres-alc thank you for the encouragement - even thought we exchanged less comments, but I remember you are very interested in flowers
You have been here and there - thank you for all the support you have for me @Gezendunyali you made me wanted to visit Turkey and its beautiful places.
Congratulations on your achievements @Sophia_Cambodia . On just checking I see that only 32 Local Guides have earned the Influential Writer’s badge so that is a fantastic contribution achievement.
