what does local guide program means to me?

HI I m Maria Zaib, From Karachi Pakistan, and I m Level 5 Local Guide.

I see the Local Guides program as an extension of my and others’ contribution to discovering new places and experiences.
It feels very exciting to be able to give a honest opinion, to appreciate people who have offered you an amazing service, and to add beautiful imagery to support your review.

I eat travel alot, for my job and as a passion. I travel as much as I can and love photography. The Google Guides enable me to share my photography with the world, and to help both users discover destinations through my lens and business owners promote their products and experiences.
Also, my friends and colleagues constantly ask me for tips for a destination when they are planning their travels, so instead of re-writing all my tips each time, I create Google Maps lists and share them. This is so much easier and can be helpful to many more users.
Recently I attend A meetup in Karachi, hosted by @KashifMisidia , and it was great time for me to learn more about Local Guides program .

I hope I will get selected and would meet amazing local guides internationally and I m sure that I will be back, I will be mentor for hundreds of local guides in Karachi.
