My Entry to: "Week 11 - Pay It Forward Curation Contest- @thedarkhorse"

As I was getting My Entry to: "Week 11 - Pay It Forward Curation Contest" ready, I looked for the graphics ...

But, it is not there!

Move over, Zig Ziglar ...

So, here is mine from: The Best Time to "Plant a Tree" - Here on SteemIt, Is Right Now!

It is NEVER TOO LATE to Do Something Good!

This is the latest of a series of her travel blog:

  • on a motorcycle,
  • traveling alone,
  • in Vietnam
  • in the remote places!
Sorry for the bullets - the nerd 😐 and geek 😑 in me 😎 wants to come out!

New game, new chances! After yesterdays fiasco, I will again try to make it today (with passport) to Cao Bằng.
.
With positive energy, at least I know the first bit if the way, I tear along the road. In no time I make it to Bảo Lạc, the first stop. A small restaurant with a family of five smiles kindly when I walk in. I sit down at one of the big round tables and (again) manage, thanks to the Google translate app, to clarify that I would like to eat something.

@ashleesimpson

This post is old, but, @ashleesimpson certainly is unique in what she does - adventure-travel, for lack of a better term.

The featured post is old and there is a new post for voting: Handmade Paua Shell Jewellery if you have not been able to vote on the old, and originally featured post: Annapurna Base Camp

After 10 days of strenuous trekking - 7 hours a day - we reached Annapurna Base Camp deep within the Himalayas, Nepal.
.
With burnings calves and a deep appreciation for the world we live in, I watched the Sun rise over the intimidatingly beautiful peak of Annapurna, that stands at over 8000m tall.

I generally do not like to copy graphics from other people's blogs, but, I am doing this due to the spectacular nature of these two traveler-bloggers, both are taking huge risks to do so. Copying and posting them hopefully will help them gain visibility and recognition of their courageous adventures.

"the bonus Feature spot will be one that should revolve around someone who is positive or helps others."

Well, who else but:

My Journey: Isolated Tribe Mentawai #End

This is the end of the series documenting his journey, leading a team, to remote places and reached out to help remote tribes.

At 5.15 we arrived at Syukri’s house, we take rest and cleaned ourselves. I started to check my luggage, and take dirty clothes out and wrap with plastic bag. Tomorrow morning we would go back to Muara Siberut a main civilization on the island. From Muara Siberut we would continue our trip to Katiet by local public ferry.
.
I made fast food for our dinner, I took 3 cans of cornet beef and mixed it with instant noodle and rice. Jonathan and Karen had a little complain about rice. They had been enough with rice things, so then I cook extra instant noodle for both of them.
...

We went to hillside to check their new relocation escape house and notice the main problem, which was water supply. We took some interview note and we made a plan to reduce their problem of water shortage in the area. Afterward, we brought the issue to international board member of our Humanitarian Organization as the help for the community. Some of International Organization took action a month later.
