Hi All,
My name is Sajal Das. I was born and brought up in Kolkata and now staying in Bangalore. I am a traveler. I travel to lots of places frequently. Along the travel I come across many places which are not very well known to many people or the information about that places are wrong. The google local guide is a platform for me to do something for the community by while sharing my passion of travelling. As a part of Local Guides, taking pictures, writing review, and making a list of visited places has been my routines in every journey. There are many things around the globe which is not known to a large amount of people. By sharing information on google map I help a large community of people with accessibility and information about unknown places. And it also connects people from different place, region and culture. Like adding information about small shops, restaurants, monuments, less known trekking routes, resorts, hotels etc. It also helps people who are running small businesses with giving them exposure to a larger audience. Like how I have added certain Homestay in google map which has boosted their business and accessibility to the public. Or how my information about certain trekking path has made the travel easy and safe for many people. Now it has become much more than just a passion. It gives me a proud feeling that I am doing something for society by helping people. Being a local guide has become an identity something which I can proudly associate with. And I can proudly say that with this I am making world a better place to live.
