Tired of the new rules, Carmina closed her Google Maps account — what pushed her over the edge?

It’s been months since Carmina last posted on her Google Maps. I started doing it just for fun, exploring new places to dine and travel, and sharing those spots with others. Back in 2017, I wasn’t even blogging yet. Over the years, I received numerous email updates about changes, but in September, the removal of followers on Google Maps felt particularly strange. There’s no point in complaining about it. I decided not to close my account, as it wasn’t an option, but I did delete all the photos I had contributed over the years. I have fond memories of seeing which photos were popular and had hoped to share them with you. It was surprising to see how many views my pictures had accumulated. While deleting them, I noticed that many restaurants and bakeries no longer exist, with some marked as unknown on the map. Most of my photos were from the pandemic period, a time when I could fully express myself and write about the food I enjoyed. Let's take a trip down memory lane with Carmina th...

When was a time in your life you felt everything was falling apart?

 


For the past few days I felt my world was falling and I didn’t know what to do or how I would feel when my world was falling apart it wasn’t serious to other people but to me it felt a big impact something I had worked so hard for and didn’t want it to end or to feel I had quit on something I just begun to be recognized for what effort I did to establish my blog.

My domain need a renewal and my credit card is already expired and since we are experiencing pandemic I need to find away how I can pay it on time before it had really expired. Due my credit card was coming from another country I had to find out if a new card was sent to my home town.

Every day I couldn’t sleep and the more I worked to do more researched I came to a dead end something I had to see if my personal blog really mean anything to me or how would I cope if it we’re no longer in my hands.

Or I thought what if I had applied to a new web host and a domain but then again I would need to start from the beginning which means I am far away from where I’ve already started.

I kept myself away from telling anyone because I knew no one could help me because everything was link under my name and no one is held responsible only me alone.

I don’t usually keep things to myself I seem a different person isolated to my own world something my friends never knew who I was the first time in my life I didn’t need to explain what I was going through even if I wasn’t in the mood to talk or ask for help from someone.

Even though I felt my world falling apart I kept everything to myself and did so many researches to see what other possibilities I can come up with in order to find out how I can renew my domain name.

I had to think hard if I wanted to continue having a blog and if what I was doing was something I can handle not having a part of my life. Or was I really earning enough money from it and the effort and time I had put myself into my personal blog worth it.

I realized in every situation not in a relationship you can feel broken apart something you had for almost a year yet when your world is ending you tend to try to solve no feeling you are a failure but to find other options to make it all work out.

Finally, after days of stressed and not eating property something came up and I was able to solve something on my own.
