2022
It's been almost two years I have started contributing towards google maps as well as get involved with local guides connect. A platform full of diverse people where I can get to know about persons from different countries and their cultures, traditions etc.
People know me by Farhana Rupa
Place from I belong : Dhaka, Bangladesh
I get introduced with google maps by my friend and then I met the great leader Mahabub Hasan and gradually started knowing about the community Bangladesh local guides and finally about Local Guides Connect.
Educational information: I am a final year student of Textiles as well pursuing my CIMA. Though I was not that much fortunate studying with technology but I always had a passion to learn about Technology and stuffs from the very beginning. As a result I started doing research by my own self and started studying. I started with Google Educator Group Dhaka south, then Google maps as well as Local Guides, Women techmakers Bangladesh and kept on going.
Profession : Basically I am not done yet with my studies but recently have got a chance to receive a Training from Augmedix BD.
I am a food and shopping lover. I love to experiment with fashion, doing makeovers. Cooking is my another hobby. I sing from my passion and dance as well 😄 I had an opportunity to anchor big tech/non-tech events too ^_^
I really love to explore new places as well as meet, hangout and help most importantly learn something new and spread the knowledge.
As the girls do not feel that much interested towards technology, I always try to encourage them and try to let them know how technology can make our life more easier. For example, Google maps is helping us finding information about new places as a result we can save our valuable time, money and energy too. Then I thought why don’t I start to contribute on maps as by doing this I can help so many people without even knowing. Fortunately other girls are also getting involved into this social work and all of us are enjoying doing this work very much.
Now lets know about my journey:
