Being a LG is an opportunity to put a finger print on the world; a continuous impact of the way that we see the world that will remain for future generations to come.
Being a LG is an opportunity to reflect today’s physical viewpoints, emotions, and thought patterns about the earth we live in into a worldwide intertwined platform system, that people can access from all around the world.
Being a LG also has meant to me growing positively within a community of other like-minded individuals, whether it via the online blog platform, via in person meet ups, and also having had the opportunity last year to attend the life changing Local Guides Connect Live 2019, where friendships were formed that will last for years beyond what I ever imagined.
Being a LG, I have been able to make friendships with people all around the world from countries that I didn’t even think much about in the past, but now I feel I know so much more about different cultures, people, their environments, and their country. And realizing that all around the world the same basics of humans are the key reason for our existence.
Just because we speak a different language or have a different skin color or clothing, it doesn’t mean that we don’t all still desire the same things in life. And the one thing that is so apparent amongst all the other LG’s in our Google Local Guides Program, is a smile.
Whether it is a smile when meeting a new person, a smile to show we are happy to see one another again, or a smile when we say goodbye hoping to see them again soon. We always offer a friendly smile; not only to other LG’s, but to people in our communities and beyond.
Imagine letting future guests who use a wheelchair to get around, know if the location is accessible or not, and what those specifications are by writing this in your reviews. Or a mom with small children and a baby stroller can know from your pictures if there is a changing station in the toilet facilities. Every little thing helps others when we think outside the box and outside of ourselves.
In summary, what the Google Maps Local Guide Programs means to me, is an opportunity to be something so much more greater than myself; for the goodness of all humanity.
