Becoming a Google Local Guide

Becoming a Google Local Guide

So my pal and brother-in-law Glenn Ison posted a photo on Google Maps. It was of a place in Paris. Next thing he knows he gets an email from Google saying “How would you like to be a local guide?” He goes “Yup” and then tells me all about it.

  1. Well deserved Greg. The images you have taken on your many and varied trips(expeditions) show the places you visit in an interesting and informal light. Just the way travel images should be. Your writing style compliments your images in the same way. I reckon travel journalism is the way to go. Perks galore can pop up unexpectedly too. If you can collect a Press Pass along the way many more doors and windows of opportunity open. Go for it my WordPress friend.


    1. “Press Pass” – that would be so cool 🙂 Thanks 🙂
