What does the local Guides program mean to me

Journey in many metro cities now become more trouble some due to heavy traffic. Everyone is busy and unaware, even nearby places. Hence the importance of maps and directions increased. So I like maps and directions . I fell in love with Google maps, due to its accuracy, other map services were not very accurate and their information very incorrect, then I saw that the work they were doing was incredible to find information from each mall , house, parks, parking, plaza, market places , even unnoticedplaces in my daily walk … etc.

Then I realized that I could collaborate and I thought it would be wonderful to be able to work for google helping so many people find special places in other unknown cities.

Hence, I signed up for google guide and used to share my known places, with photos and with other useful information. Since my childhood I had a vision to help human being in their daily life in some way. This medium brings people under an umbrella of Global Village. I discovered that my photos and reviews are very useful for others and I love being useful for this world.

Every walk of my life i used to collect information and snaps so that it will be useful for someone. My wife encouraged me much, as a teacher by profession she also like to leave good memories for the generations. So, I hope they give me the ticket for two people so I can take her and she sees that it is worth doing what I do.
