So the most interesting thing that I ever tried doing as a local guide was to explore and travel and capture the scenes as well as memories through my phone’s camera and then upload it on Maps. Well, that’s how I earned the badge of novice photographer 
It’s always been a fun to do task and full of excitement to capture and share photos on Google Maps as they ultimately turned productive for me as well as the audience with a very big community. I would like to thank the team and the entire company Google Inc. for giving me this pleasure of being a part through local guides program and other partnerships program such as YouTube, etc… since an early age of life. Initially when I joined the local guides program and it was limited to certain users and I still remember I was so confused at using its features embedded in google maps itself and contribution of content was very exciting as everything was new to me and I was very curious while exploring this limited user benefits. But then things started getting even more better when the developer team focused on contribution and more input or user interface from the local guides through android/ios application on the phones which made it a lot easier for us local guides to contribute information or photos directly from our smartphones without having to connect through computers. And trust me it’s getting more better day after day. I respect the entire teams efforts and the way they consider feedback and work on the bugs/issues by rolling out new updates on regular basis. Before leaving I would like to motivate everyone and advice you to become a Local Guide if not registered yet and for all my existing friends/partners/Local Guides out there on the platform helping each other I wanna Thank You for your support, help and contributions. Keep supporting and stay together as a ONE BIG Google Family !!! I hope everybody reading this is as much excited as I am for the upcoming Connect Live 2020 Lets rock it !!!
