Hi everyone!
I am Gulshan. I stay in New Delhi, India for most of the time of the year.
Whenever I visit a place, a new city, new location in my city. I always use Google Maps for navigation and I really appreciate people taking time to add reviews and
answer those common questions about places. Because I am benefited by these
reviews and answers, I have this habit of keeping the information updated and
add new information.

- A specific type of place, I always mark on Google maps is the “parking location”. So, whenever I drove to a place I was always worried about the parking place and time it’d take at the venue. I always try finding the easy parking and mark that location for future. This way I’ve got a list of convenient places to park vehicles. It helps a lot. To a few people, this may sound silly but I feel good parking locations at famous as well not-so-famous places are underrated and not many people care about them but it sometimes take a lot of time.

- Other than above I always love to answer those quick yes/no questions about places I visit. Google map’s algorithm is also so cool and intuitive. It makes my job of answering/verifying facts about the places I visit so easy that it is a hobby for me and I don’t have to spend a lot of time to do it.
For example, Whenever I take my daughter to a paediatrician I get to see timings of doctor’s visit. Whenever I am leaving the clinic, I always ensure and confirm if the timings that I got from Google maps 're correct and I try and keep crucial information like these correct so that nobody needs to call the clinic and confirm the timings. That makes people’s life including me much less complicated.
Doctor’s clinic is just one of the examples. Places can be anything be it supermarket, cinema or places where I occasionally dine at.
