Hello Local Guides!!!
Here is my introduction....

Name: AjitW

Location: Mumbai, India

What do I love about being a Local Guide: It complement with my passion for walking... The 'Local Guide' is like a multi players online game which enhance your senses. This helps to appreciate the 'Places of Interest' in more refined manner... To represent that experience I have kept the mirror image of my eye as the profile photo. You could also see the reflection of mobile micro lense in the photo...

First Sermon by Buddha at Sarnath, India...

 I love to share: Experiences gained through the pleasure walks and presenting it in the form of photos and reviews. So people get to see the better things in the world...

Beautiful Thai Buddhist Vihar (Temple), Bodhgaya, India...

How did I hear about Local Guides: Probably the algorithm of Google maps caught me red handed giving ratings on the maps. As a result, received an email in May-2017. Welcoming me as a Local Guide in the fabulous world of enriching the Google maps...

Bada Imambada, residence of former ruler of Awadh (Luchknow), India...

Fun Fact About Me: A left hander teetotaler who also never drinks tea-coffee... but addicted as a Local Guide...

Shanti stupa, a Buddhist Monument at the Ancient town and World's First Republic Vaishali (Bihar- India)

Excellent example of Male-Female joints (layering of stones) at the Ancient Shiv Temple, at Ambernath (Maharashtra- India)

Long but a beautiful journey towards Level 10... (Shivaji Garden, Birla Mandir, Ulhasnagar-India)

 A big Thank You for reading my introduction... And a Grand Welcome to the new Local Guides!!!

What do I love about being a Local Guide: I love the fact that my voluntary contributions of review's, photos, adding of places, checking the facts I make to the Google maps is helping millions of people in the world day by day! This brings me great excitement and happiness!!!!I 

I love to share: I love adding places that are not yet listed on the Google maps, so that when other people try to find that place, they can locate it easily. Whenever I visit a place, I like leaving a helpful review about the place so that other people can have a view about the place.

How did I hear about Local Guides: I downloaded the Google maps app and when I saw the start contributing icon, I clicked and started doing my part to make the world a easier place for people to locate with adequate and reliable information.

Fun Fact About Me: I love travelling, visiting tourist attractions, and driving true remote areas to discover nature at its best. I have a great sense of humor as well and when with me it's always fun all the way 🙂
