Hello
My name is shibin, I am a Google local guide level 6. I started uploading photos and reviews upon curiosity only like any other local guide. Slowly it became my hobby. I am trying to take photos wherever i go to upload in the maps. Millions of people are choosing restaurants and stores by reading our reviews in the Google map. I am very thrilled to do this service for our society. It is a power that Google gave to me that my opinions might let business owners to deliver better service! The sales person tries their best to make me happy once they notice that I took pictures. That means being a Google local guide I receives better services as well!
I am nothing in terms of number of views for any of my picture when i am compared with higher level local guides, but for me it was an achievement when the total views of my photos crossed one million mark and looking for much higher achievements in the future. I would like to be selected by Google for the connect live 2020 while doing the activities passionately.
Our lives have been enhanced with the Google local guide program. It’s like a beautiful string of south sea pearls, where the pearls are hobby, passion, service, thrill, power, achievement and recognition!
The Google local guide program means an enriched life for me. Thank you for uniting people from different parts of the world of different cultures, occupations, ages and different education levels with one spirit.
