Google – Earth/Maps

This application is really helpful when you want to know the direction you’ll take to get to your destination. I was able to use this when I was applying for passport and I didn’t know how to go to the Department of Foreign Affairs. With this, I was able to know which means of transportations to take and was able to know landmarks near the location. My friends and I realized the importance of this Google Map when we went to Marinduque. We were asking locals in Boac how to get to Poctoy Beach and of course, we just follow their directions to ride this and that. We reached Poctoy after 2 or 3 hours and my friend realized that she has Google Maps installed in her iPhone. She checked it and found out that we literally travelled the whole island because two towns more and we’re back in Boac! So now, we learn to check this application first before asking anyone.
