What does the Local Guides program mean to you: Surface the hidden sensation.

Hello Friends,

Glad to share with all of you that I started to work as local guide is out of curiosity only, being from small village and exposed very limited to internet and technology my curiosity increased with introduction of android phones and its use. In the era of internet I used to browse the google map for hours. I used to explore all over the globe and was getting the feel of real travelling to the places which I rarely dream to visit or impossible at all. Local guides helped me out to explore the new places. Initially I wonder that can I do the same work like other local guides, But with the first edit of my farm on google maps and getting it approved given me the joy and happiness as well as feeling being different that I can post even in gigantic google maps. Google map can acknowledge my efforts and our edits and give us publicity on its huge platform.

After the first edit many people around me started to approach me and ask to pin their businesses and establishments on the maps. Me too with great enthusiasm started to post pictures as well as pin the edits of good places. I specially focused on to give more exposure to hidden things or far away from publicity. As a local guide I started to correct the addresses which are wrongly posted by many of us. I will love to work as local guide. If invited to connect live 2020 it will be mine dream come true to have acknowledged by GOOGLE.
