Hi Friends,
I will start my story from the very beginning. I started posting feedbacks whenever i visited a place which i didn’t like much then one day I got an email from Google and I received 50% percent off on hotel stay as a perk. I found it interesting and then I Googled about the program and came to know how many people are contributing to it and how useful it is. It’s been 4-5 years now and I am at level 9 now.
Now, perks do not matter because now it’s more than that to me. There are many reasons why I always want to be associated with the community.
First, it gave me an opportunity to associate with Google, directly or indirectly it gives me a sense of pride that I am a Google contributor.
Second, it gave me so much knowledge about so many communities on the local guides community page. I read so many articles about how people are organizing meetups and how they are contributing to society.
Last but not least, it gave me a passion to follow. I started clicking pictures for my reviews and then it became a passion for me. I bought a DSLR and started taking pictures. I took some workshops and worked as a fashion photographer and it all happened because of this program.
I hope this program and community will keep me inspiring me and I promise that i will try my best to keep contributing more and more.
