What does the Local Guides program mean to you?

Local Guide binds me to a whole new community! I am simply so thrilled that I write reviews, post pictures that people view, like and learn. The feeling that it’s helping someone somewhere itself is satisfying!

I started about 5 years ago, accidentally when a doctor asked me for inputs on the local restaurants and places of interest. When he shared about Google Maps, got back home & was immediately hooked.

  1. The Local Guide means helping, connecting, bringing the community closer. I feel am contributing to the universal brotherhood. Business, especially the wedding venues thanked me for the reviews, I had never expected to receive a Thank you note, and that I have made a very small impact on the business is so very rewarding. One of my post (canopy walk) I was asked for help, I was so thrilled, that I went to the local forest department to get the contact details for the person who need help. It made them happy & I felt blessed. One of the owners of a cake shop (Kamat’s) called me and told me that his cake orders saw a jump after my post. I was shocked, & satisfied. The urge of exploring new places has increased

Hi @AvoPineda ,

Please bear in mind that I’m going to remove the Spanish language tag from your post as it is in English. Only posts written in a specific language should have the corresponding label. You can find more information in this article How do I find posts in my preferred language?.
