#1 Canadian Rockies: The detour to the famous Moraine Lake, day 5
Posts about the Rockies in Canada always fascinate me as I've never been before, and today I have great one for you from @ladybug146. After her camping trip, she decided to take a detour to Banffa and Jasper but got elbowed out by all the international tourists (yes I feel for you!). With that plan out of the window, she was forced to move and ended up at Moraine Lake which turned out to be much better especially she's been trying to get there 5 times already. This part of the world is so beautiful that it used to feature on the Canadian $20 bill, and it really is something. Check out @ladybug146's post yourself. You won't be disappointed!

#2 Travel Story: Hitchhiking Chiloé island in Chile (Part II)
I think @martibis would love this post as he may have found another mad hitch hiker like him (or are all hitch hikers like this...?). This post is from @mrprofessor's hitch hiking journey at Chile. In fact part 1 of his journey is the the honourable mention below. In this part, he spent 3 hours trying to hitch hike a trip to his next destination and by the time he gets there its already late afternoon and time to find somewhere to sleep for the night. Fortunately, a kind lady offered to let him sleep under her market stall. So knife in hand for protection and one eye open throughout the night, he spends the night under the stall as the police car wizzs by outside.

#3 Mykonos - The island of the rich and gay?!
Our last featured post is from @theaustrianguy who spent a weekend at Mykonos in Greece. He takes us aroud the island visiting the famous windmills Kato Milli, the old town Little Venice, and beautiful beaches, as well as recommending some great affodable restarants. Mykonos has a bit of a reputation as being a popular gay community as well as expensive so great for people to show off their wealth. Check out his post to see what he his verdict is on the island.

This is amazing @steemitworldmap, thank you for featuring me!
If anyone has any question about Chiloé just drop me a message or find me on Discord, I'll be more than glad to help.
You're welcome @mrprofessor. Don't forget to add your posts to the map in future!!!!
Thanks for the mention and keep up the good work!
You're welcome! And we plan on it!
Love the world map posts! I think it's great to highlight these. Lots of people like myself would love to visit places and this helps me add things to my list rather than just look up stuff on the internet and find what's paid the most to advertise for top search results.
Thank you, appreciate the kind words! Yeah, we have a whole bunch of hidden gems on the map now!
