#1 Beheaded Goat and Bloody Idol above the Clouds in Himalayan Temple
Today's first featured post is from @nameless-berk who wanted to take a bus ride in Nepal to see the Everest. After a 4 to 5 hour bus ride sitting next to a kid goat and girls vomiting because it was such a bumpy ride, he ended up somewhere else not even remotely close to his destination. Not wanting to waste a whole day doing nothing but to wait for his return bus, he decided to follow the rest of the passengers to visit a local temple located 3800m high. At the temple, he saw kid goat again only to find out kid's destiny was to be a sacrifice to the Goddess of the temple!

#2 The grand Peru-Bolivia 2018 trekking tour 2018 - A day in Lima
What can you do if you have a day in Lima? Follow @planetus and he will take you to see old Lima at the famous Plaza Mayor de Lima, and then to the modern part of Lima at Miraflores. From here, he takes a paragliding tour to get a birds eye view of the city. Sadly the tour only lasted 10 minutes not as long as he would have like, but long enough to get his first glimpse of the Pacific Ocean.

# 3 Germany's second largest Castle Ruin
When people think of castles in Germany they normally think of the beautiful Castle Neuschwanstein. In our third featured post today @misomaniac takes us to Germany's second largest castle ruin Homburg, which dates back to the 11th century. It is located on the top of a mountain surrounding by beautiful landscape, there's even a hiking trail that you can do whilst you are there. And if you getting your timing right, its also a lovely spot to watch the sunset as well.
