3. What do I love about being a Local Guide:
Being a local guide feels great, I love being a local guide because its is what I love doing. I am a photographer so to me it feels good that I am helping the world in the little way that I can. I also love reviewing places that I love an know very well like Nelen Studios in Awka, the home of African Arts and culture. I also love to share my ideas about things and places that intersts me so much, with google Local Guide, the world gets to hear about it.
4. How did I hear about Local Guides: My friend and colleague, Uceey10, told me about Google Local Guide, she said alot of things that got me interested. I already had google Map on my phone but wasn't using it. I then opened an account and started mapping the world. I gt to learn how to contribute and help people with locations through my reviews. 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 adventures, I love traveling, I have flay in writing, so I do much review of places I know very well. I love being natural and have great admiration for natural life. I am always happy to be with, I have no dull moment.
Local Guides Feeling: One thing I love most in life is helping people, especially in discovering who they are and where they want to go. Google Local guide makes me feel happy that I am really helping people with my contributions. Being a Local Guide also help me develop my skill in photography and I feel excited about this.I also feel happy when ever I have meet ups with my community, am from Awka community.
