Nepal, with some of the tallest mountains in the world, is one of the most popular country among the hikers community. Every year, thousands of people flock this place with different goals in mind.

🥈 Casino Peak The Chocolate Hills Of Cebu by @gohenry

I am so proud of myself because I successfully made it. Out of twelve persons but only the seven of us who were able to pass it through. I can imagine to myself that the peak brought me to heaven.

🥉 Äntu Sinijärv - the blue lake by @furious-one

Now what's so special about Äntu Sinijärv?It's the lake with the clearest water in Estonia. If you've red my posts before, you know we have forest rivers with brown tint, lakes so dark you don't know what kind of monsters live underwater and greenish brown seawater, which gets dark already a meter or two deeper. But not Äntu Sinijärv!The approximate expected visibility is 15 meters in this lake. But why approximate expected? Because the max depth is only 8 meters here.But the unusually clear water is due to powerful springs flowing through the lake, which is the reason why the temperatures don't rise above 10-15 degrees Celsius here even in midsummers. I love it!
