One of my most memorable experiences was being recognized as a Local Guides contributor by Google.   Because of this, I was given the opportunity to meet 149 other active contributors from different countries and be invited to the Google Local Guides Summit in San Francisco in 2017.  I gained friends from all around the world while helping people be better informed.

I was able to contribute reviews of locations, map some out and share photos with the public.  My photos reached the 10 million views mark.   

I wasn't able to contribute as much in 2018 but I was still surprised to be a top Local Guide in my community.   This 2019, I hope to add more contributions and live up to the title of being a Local Guide.
