In 2018, I suggested my friend to put their coffee shop on the map so people could find it easily. but at that moment, my friend didn’t know how to do that. Then, I found a way to help him. I searched on the internet the way to add place on the map. Then an article told me to register a local guide. After registration, google asked me to give contributions and I was very confused how to start. a few days later, I learn how and I tried to add the place of my friend’s coffee shop and I was very happy when my add place was approved by Google. Then, I just continued contibuting the recommended place I knew.
The very significant development of start up company for taxi, travel, hotel and online booking apps in my country makes me interested in editting new places on the map, adding places, giving some reviews and giving rate for recommended place to visit, such as restaurant, hotel and some stunning tourism places to help people finding new experiences.
My family lives in rural area which is far away from the city. At that moment, when I went home then I ordered a taxi using a taxi app on my smart phone from the city, I didnt find my family’s house and way to go there. Then, I added my family’s house to the map, some important places at my village and edited the map. Now, I am extremely happy that Google map can reach my hometown. Never have I done the interesting thing like this before and now I can easily reach my village using the map.
I really didnt know that Google has a local guide program especially connect live for the local guides who have a chance to attend annual global event at google’s campus till I got an email from google. It’s so interesting to contribute on Google map and its makes me more interested in learning to be a good local guide.
Now I know that I am the local guide and I believe that I’m worth to learn and to get more knowledge about google map at Google’s campus. I really love traveling and I hope, I can contribute more on Google map by sharing my interesting experiences to many people.
