What I love the most about sharing on Google Maps.

I started my hobby in photography at a very young age, where I took pictures of almost about everything, mostly the places I went to and the food my mom cooked. In Asia, it is very normal to take pictures of food and then sharing it on social media.

Then, I went to Europe to start my new journey and I noticed that people looked at me weirdly because I kept on taking pictures of the food I ate. It slowly made me stop doing so, and I just rarely posted about food or indoor places.

Suddenly, Google Map appeared, competing with some other websites that allow people to share their experiences in places, especially regarding food and drinks. Ever since Google enabled us the users to post pictures, I remember I started taking more pictures back in 2016 when I lived in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

I began to receive E-mails from Google, stating that my reviews and pictures help a lot of people who use Google Map. My food photography hobby is finally met with Google Map’s feature. Therefore, I’m so happy to be able to contribute because I also rely a lot on people’s reviews about places. Of course taste and preference may differ, but at least in general it can give ideas of what to expect and also to see how food is served in different places. Thank you, Google!
