I love sharing Photos and Personalised Reviews on Google Maps
and why.
Because it is What I Love to do – I love to take pictures and I love to see the world from my own perspective and take notes about it. I am a son, husband, father and coach (and much more).
The photos I post are not just Photos – they are the attraction for others to visit that place.
The Photos I post have a glimpse of my personal stories as a young couple with a growing child and cheerful elderly parents.
The Reviews that I write are my most concise words of suggestion to other who I can feel are concerned and carefully taking decisions based on google maps. I understand how we feel before leaving for a place, we think of money, time, safety and most of all we want it to be pleasurable and useful to us and our loved ones.
I hope most of you are understanding what I mean.
Here are my few photos and the glimpses of stories behind it.
Family Sunday ( Google Maps positively helped family life)
It was just a regular Sunday in Mumbai (India) and I want to go relax with my family. Its me and my wife ( who are tired after 6 days work), my father 74 and mother 72 ( who want to go out but are concerned about travelling and accessibility), My little daughter ( just over 2 years wants to explore and run and play). When I think, There are many options or none!
Choosing a place with all above concerns was only possible because of Google Maps and I chose Growel’s 101 mall as it had all the suitable options. I had visited a few malls before taking my wife, daughter and parent to this mall. So, after that I did regular Reviews, photos for such more which are good for other families like mine. After this I searched more such place, like Tea Villa Café, Zaffran restaurant, Esselworld Bird Park and some more where we now visit whenever we want to relax.
Abroad alone for coach accreditation (Google Maps helped in planning career related trip)
I was travelling alone to Dubai for my ICC Level 1 Coach Education and accreditation. Google Maps was my only confident choice to understand and plan my 3 days stay. Thanks Google Maps. I contacted the right person at the ICC academy and searched the Apartments for stay, nearby cafe and its Groceries Supplies options. The next year I went more confidently for my ICC Level 2 and this time took a friend with me adding just 15 percent more in cost.
Taking a After Pregnancy Trip for my wife ( Personal Life and Care during life’s special times)
We wanted to travel but with all the careful safety for the mother and child (I also wanted to relax as for months was emotionally focused on my wife and child. This trip to Chandigarh needed reviews that mentioned baby food options, 24-hour restaurants, extra bed, airport to hotel comfortable travel time and options. Much more was found in ratings, reviews and photos of Google Maps. I too did the same by posting my ratings, reviews and photos during and after the trip.
I feel the photos and reviews I share are my most sincere and loving posts on google maps as a Local Guide who sometimes travels abroad to. These make others travel in real world with real emotions of joy, safety and feeling of trusting the people around the world and yet having the excitement of the natural differences in places and people.
