If you use Backup and Sync (the old "Drive"), your folder is ~/Google Drive/
If you use Drive Stream and do not map the mount point to an alias in the

-- 
On the first day, God created the heavens and the Earth
On the second day, God created the oceans.
On the third day, God put the animals on hold for a few hours,
   and did a little diving.
And God said, "This is good."
