Our winners today 🍍


🥇 Entering the exclusion zone at Chernobyl, traveling back in time. by @thijsvermeer

" Eventually the gate opened and we could enter the exclusion zone. Within a few minutes we arrived at the town called Chernobyl, ten miles south of the reactor. It was surprisingly busy as I had imagined no people would live there. It turned out to be mostly military people and I was told the town was save to live in since the reactor's fallout had gone north-west and not in this direction. Which I knew was true."

🥈 Rupit a walk through deep Catalonia by @evagavilan2

"It is a tradition of Catalonia and practically an element of Catalan mythology.It consists of taking a log, putting a beret on it and covering it with a blanket so that it does not get cold, the children put food on it and when it eats it, it transforms it into gifts.Before the children sing a song and then look under the blanket.In Rupit for being close to wooded areas is a magical place where the Tió usually hide and in the village there are several representations of them."

      Amazing, couldn't hop over to all 😅, but extraordinary compilation as usual.

      @LivingUKTaiwan I wanted to ask if this project is being further developed? I liked this, the idea of pinning your posts on the map is fabulous. And having a dedicated map for your profile as well.

      It would be great if we could also tag journeys. Like adding multiple pins to your post can appear as a line graph showing the route you travelled. And people would be able pin their posts to the routes at the map.

      Well I am not sure how technically sound and viable this idea is in terms of coding & execution. And I am aware that we can use waypoints in the app for a similar purpose. I just felt like suggesting, so did.

      Thank You 🙏

      Hi there, you can actually do that on your mobile haveyoubeenhere app https://www.haveyoubeenhere.com/

      You can create waypoints in the app by adding photos, description, date, rating and tag a location. These waypoints can be connected together to create a trip to show where you've travelled within the dates that you've defined when you create the trip.

      Or you can select certain waypoints to make a post which you can also cross post to Hive. However, the cross post will only take the location of the first waypoint and pin it to pineapple.

      Check out the mobile and drop by our discord if you have any further questions,
