Honestly I would say the local guide program mean a lot to me
The local guide program bring smile on the faces of people when they’re trying to find a new place or add a new place to Google map.
Few years ago I started adding new places to Google maps and when I done it for first time it gave me a kind of confidence and happiness because it is a kind of help for people.
I started adding new places along with reviews continuously after my first contribution to Google maps.
Being a local guide in Afghanistan is truly a kind of help to the people of Afghanistan and people who comes here from other side of the globe.
Most people find locations or destination because of our contribution to Google maps
Whenever I travel somewhere I always trying to find new places to add it into Google maps
I review places when I’m looking for my favorite location and take photos of almost everything in my trip.
The place where I do live is called Kabul and we do not have so many contributions here, if you are looking to find a place in Google maps still we are missing many places.
We have few Parks here in Kabul but the one near my home is Habibullah Zazai Park, when I was there for the first time I took some beautiful photos of Habibullah Zazai Park and added it to Google map.
I was in Jalalabad province few years ago and I was looking for a place, I asked people about it but they didn’t helped me then few days later I found out about Google maps. When I found out that Google have provided this service to world, I was so happy and I started adding places along with reviews and photos to provide help to people and my community.
When I started this process of adding places to Google maps, I traveled to different provinces of Afghanistan and contributed with many places.
Last year I traveled to Dubai and when I reached hotel I opened Google maps to find a good place which provide seafood, when I opened Google maps I saw almost every place were added into Google maps like Hospital, hotels, school, bus station, metro station, cinema etc…
And when I came back to Afghanistan and opened Google maps I saw only few or very important places were added into Google maps and it made me a bit upset because people of other countries worked so much for their country but unfortunately we don’t have peoples like that to add places to Google maps After that day I decided to work for my country to add and review places like hospitals, schools cinemas and so many other places,
United we stand, Divided we fall!
Thanks.
