Hi @geke,
Thank you for participating in the #travelfeed curated tag. To maintain a level of quality on the project we have certain criteria that must be met for participation. Please review the following: https://travelfeed.io/@travelfeed/how-to-participate-use-travelfeed-in-your-posts
We require at least 250 words, but your post has only 222 words.
Thank you very much for your interest and we hope to read some great travel articles from you soon!
If you believe that you have received this comment by mistake or have updated your post to fit our criteria, you can ignore this comment. For further questions, please contact us on the TravelFeed Discord.
Regards, @travelfeed

We are continuously working on improving TravelFeed, recently we introduced EasySignUp and EasyLogin, our first step to make TravelFeed ready for mass adoption.

@travelfeed, this is why manual curation is a better idea than bots that count words and sort out "unwanted" tags (I've seen a creative post on sewing footbags get auto-booted from creative coin because it dared to use a sportstalk tag). Just get some eyeballs on the post to see if it's a fit for your tag!!! (This is also why I only manually curate now... no more bot voting.) If curation is important to this community, we ought to be doing it OURSELVES.
TravelFeed is a platform focussed on travel blogging, and while your post has nice photos, it does not meet our requirements. You wouldn't believe how many 10 word appics submissions we get that don't even come close to a blog, so in order to save our curators (and users) the time of reading all these spammy and short posts, posts under 250 words that we wouldn't consider for curation anyway are filtered out automatically and don't appear on our platform TravelFeed.io. Just like a one-photo post wouldn't appear on Dtube. The automated comment you received is in order to inform you of this fact.
While we send out automated comments, all our upvotes are done manually by our curation team, and since we enjoy your photos and want to encourage you to write longer blogs in the future, we have given you a partial upvote.
Btw: We are not just a curated tag, but a travel platform on Steem, and while we still allow submissions through other frontends like Steemit, when posting through our platform TravelFeed.io you can earn larger upvotes, and our editor makes sure to inform you of our requirements ;)
