Travel down the Memory Lane

It gives me immense pleasure in writing my landmark post.

This post I am writing as part of
#Celebrating 10 years of LOCAL GUIDES CONNECT
#Celebrating 20 years of Google Maps
#Celebrating my 100th post.
#Celebrating Badges received in Google Maps.

This is my achievement post too. I am Level 8 Local Guide from Chennai, INDIA.

I am contributing since 2019. I am very happy to say that I got awarded in Google Maps as Master Photographer , Master Reviewer, Moved to Expert Director, New Contributer and very close of getting badges for Novice Trailblazer and Novice Factfinder. I am happy to contribute to Maps. I feel great to be associated with this wonderful community.

Below is the screenshot of my Badges in Google Maps

I got placed in the top 100 contributors in LeaderBoards. This gave me an idea about what is my position in Google Maps. Below is the screenshot video of the LeaderBoards by @AdamGT

I was introduced into Chennai Local Guides group by @VickyKrish. I was the first woman Local Guide to join then. I was given a warm welcome by the Local Guides of that esteemed group. Below is the screenshot of my city’s Local Guides Community.

In Local Guides Connect my posts got good recognition. I was given wonderful compliments and feedback from many Local Guides and then Connect Moderators. The picture below is the screenshot of the compliments received for one post.

My posts attracted many Local Guides throughout the world. Local Guides Community gave a good recognition and I got wonderful comments globally. I feel their comments and feedback gave more motivation to contribute further. In fact I was one of the favorite authors. I was placed 111 out of 176125 places. Below is the screenshot which is a testimony of that achievement.

I got the 20 badges in Connect for my consistent contributions. I take prevelege to mention about my badges received, since they really mean a lot me. They play a great part to boost me to contribute.

I became favourite among Women Local Guides and I received many compliments from them. I take opportunity to thank all those wonderful women whom I have mentioned about them in my previous posts. Below is the screenshot of one such beautiful compliments.

I have tremendous support from this community. @TravellerG Sir guided me to create a prestigious group. I was given the prevelege to create the #TeamIndia group along with very senior Local Guides @TravellerG Sir, @AjitThite, @AmbrishVarshney, @RtnArulPrakasamT, @GokulKrishna, @Anil6969, @Tejal, @Shrut19, @RosyKohli @NareshDarji, @TusharSuradkar, who were instrumental in leading this group and making it strong. Compared to them my contributions are like a seadrop in an ocean.

This group was first created to bring Local Guides together to write posts about our culture, heritage and importance of historical places in India. We got around 120 posts from various Local Guides under this banner.

Now #TeamIndia group is marching forward by bustling new members introduced and motivated by Naresh Darji, TusharSuradkar, TravellerG and Ajitthite.

I would also like to mention about the meetups that I have conducted and attended. The following are a few meetups which I have done as host and co-host. These meetups below are close to me.

This is the recap of my first meetup Spicy Sunday Always the first is a very special one.

Relieve The Lockdown is my meetup hosted during the covid time. @Jose_G_Benjamin was the cohost. @FalguniP guided the meetup

Immediately after the relaxing the covid restrictions, the meetup I conducted a Hybrid Meetup. Then it was the first of it’s kind meetup. This is recap of LGs Help Fishermem’s Businesses @TravellerG as cohost conducted and connected virtually with the Local Guides globally.

My First ever Meetup attended outside my city, which I will cherish forever gave me a great experience. This meetup was hosted by @NareshDarji and @Tejal was the cohost.

I have attended many meetups, which give me knowledge and vast experience.

I am associated in groups like Local Guides World (LGW), LGs Photo world, Leaders-India Local Guides, World Female LG, Chennai Local Guides, Tamilnadu Local Guides, South India Local Guides and Team Unity.

This is the photo album of My proudest moments as a Local Guide

Last but not the least I would like thank this wonderful Community for giving me the chance to connect with people and contribute to the society.
