I know I've turned down your trust, totally understandable.
It was still great advice though, so kudos for that, although I understand it could be with a bitter lining that I say this!
It definitely was stupid of me, don't have excuses for doing so. Will follow the steps of HW and come back stronger / more motivated as ever before! For now, I'll just try to earn some trust back step by step.

Yep, I am quite sure it would take many travel posts to get to the same rewards as those posts did. People would be reluctant to vote them.
It's a pity, though, as you live in a marvellous part of the world, and travel posts could cover a good portion of your weekend trips - it works great for me.
Anyway, good luck building the trust again!
