Hi,
My name is Sohail Amin Khan, i live in Pakistan, Rawalpindi, my experience in local guide has been prodigious since i joined, i have reached to level 8 recently and loved each and every step i climbed, every step has its own significance and meaning to carry on with your journey.
The most interesting thing to share on google maps is photography for me, i love taking photos of different places, specially those places which are not very famous, so people can learn and know more about it, that requires travelling to find new places which is my most favorite and desirable thing, i also try to focus on pollution free atmosphere, i at least installed 20 plus garbage bins on places which had no proper place to put your waste in, i wrote many letters to local authorities in those places also, and most of the times i get the positive response, when i do not , i tried to do with my own confined resources or ask a friend.
Another fascinating thing for me is, to promote local businesses on maps, promote in a sense to add businesses which are not on map, that helps their businesses and people who want to locate them, writing review is another best way to guide others, right review about any place like restaurant or company can be really helpful for others, it can be negative or positive but it should say a truth, so people can take advantage and save their time, and approach the right places.
Reviewing local eating point is majorly important, i love to to add my views on it, it is highly beneficial for those who want to visit, how is the taste, service and quality of food is essential for me to describe, so people have those things in mind while visiting, last but not the least, answering question is the best part, i tried to answer as many i could, one right answer can save hell of good time, guiding people through map is important, but answering a question can help even further, i always try to answer with the best of my knowledge.
Local guide on google maps has given me some more purpose in life, best thing in the world is to help others, if you do not have the opportunity , local google guide is here for you. Proud to be a local google guide
