[ RECAP] Photo Walk at Victoria Memorial, West Bengal, Kolkata

I am very happy to inform you that we have completed our photo walk meet up at Victoria Memorial. It was horrible experience because of first time in international meet up. 

My co host @Kamalhasnainee and I was explored various places in Kolkata like Victoria Memorial, 

 Alipur Zoological Garden, Madar Teresa House and many more. Some members of West Bengal Local Guides were with us to execute this meet up successfully, 

like @AshiqueMirza @ReshamDas @ratanrateria and many more. They helped us huge to organize this meet up as we wanted. Without them it wasn’t possible to gain the

success

@OmarBD, how is this a "horrible experience"?!  It looks like you and your co-host @Kamalhasnainee had great experiences on this photo walk.  So many nice photos. 

 

I don't get it. You all look like you had a great time.

 

Also, you might want to use Google Photos to create your shared albums instead of using  Google Drive so that your fellow Local Guides don't have to open each photo file (jpeg) and you can easily share the album link too. 

 

Cheers,

Karen

Ditto, @KarenVChin! Seems like successful meet-up, nothing says "horrible", at all! 

 

@OmarBD, your photos beautifully shot. 

 

Each meet-up is an experience and I believe with the takeaways from this one you will be hosting better and more meet-ups in the future. 🙂

@KarenVChin @JeslynL Sorry for late reply. Actually it's a successful meet up but we faced some issues from our starting times like Visa and Air Ticket and every section of our tour there was a tension for getting the opportunity to explore and arrangement of this meet up. Hotel reservation also was an another great issue to stay there but everything (Visa, Ticket and Hotel) we got in the last moment. I think that's why @OmarBD stated it as horrible.  

 

 

We have visited huge places in this short time. Visiting the Mother House (House of Mother Teresa) was an extra plus point to our meet up. We are very glad that we have visited this place from where Mother's love is spreading to all helpless peoples worldwide. We have faced there a great spamming(duplicate place and wrong info) problem also where some guides directing wrong information's about Mother House. They requested to solve this problem. These problems (Visiting hour, wrong reviews and some other issues) are happening because of this place was not verified. Someone normally created this place. In the Mother House there is no any laptop, desktop or any electronics items. They are not using any of these like us. Can you suggest us or them what can we do for this important place? @TraciC. We have also requested 

@Amitesh_Gayen through @AshiqueMirza and @ReshamDas to solve this problem by verifying this place under a trusted id related with The Mother House. 

 

Anyway, let's view some other places also with me...
