Have the opportunity to organize travel events through local guides and google maps

[#1]

We Can Have a Google Sponsored Meet-up yearly hosted by the Googlers in our communities. This can be done prior before the Summit always held at San Francisco or after, whatever way works for Google, am sure either before or after,  the community will appreciate them. 

This will help spur and also motivate Local Guides who might not be selected to attend the Summit Google do organize in San Fransisco. We can have the Googlers visit our communities and hold sponsored meetup  aimed at Knowledge sharing of the Google Maps and the Local Guides program. I know perfectly well this will be beneficial to the community and also to  the Googlers. Local Guides could get to meet some of the amazing Googlers who moderate this community in person. Googlers too will also have the opportunity to Travel, explore and visit different cities and also meet some of the Local Guides whom they interact with virtually as well. Am sure this won't cost anything.

e.g I Have seen some Googlers go on an adventure to look for Biryani in thier community, how about them trying out some new adventure like tasting the Nigerian Jollof ? Have a meet-up and roll out the invites to Local Guides

In like manner this can be done as well, having Photowalks, map edit walks, food crawl, accessibility meetups etc. All sponsored, you can also make great videos from such meet-ups as well to keep the social space more of in a Local Guides activities.

Hi Team, I hope this few points of mine can see this idea implemented.Caption a cross section of Local Guides from all over the world enjoying coffee and taking group photos during a joint global meetup event

As loyal Google local Guide , I would like to suggest that the to encourage our members , they should organise some meet-ups in Delhi NCR , and should create a group on any messaging apps giving us the latest details for every event & meet-ups

Hello @Varunlall

Thank you for sharing your idea.

Please note that a similar one has been already suggested here - Yearly Google Sponsored Meet-up. For that reason I will merge yours to it together with its votes.

I just recommend you before you submit an idea to search the community. It’s possible that someone else has already submitted the same one, so you can show your support by voting for that idea.

Idea: Have the opportunity to organize travel events through local guides and google maps.

Summary: Having as a travel agency for trekking, climbing, visiting traditional places, finding valuable objects (rings, ancient relics, etc.), birdwatching, among others, where the user creates the events and people sign up, pay for the events and a small percentage of the payment go to google.

Muchas gracias por tu sugerencia, @leonorgipe. Ten en cuenta que la idea Yearly Google Sponsored Meet-up es muy similar a la tuya de manera que voy a fusionar tu post allí. 

En futuro, antes de crear una idea, te recomiendo Comprobar si no ha sido sugerida por otro Local Guide. Porque si ya existe, podrás votar por ella y el chance de ser implementada crecerá.

Hello @superstarrazik,

Thank you for your idea, but it seems that such a suggestion has already been raised. 

I am going to merge your idea with the main one.
