Hey guys! As you know, two weeks ago the @SteemitWorldmap team, @martibis, @choogirl, @livinguktaiwan, @itchyfeetdonica and I (@lizanomadsoul) decided, that it's time to say thanks to everyone for your support over the year.
As one of the earliest curation guilds on Steemit, we couldn't have lasted this long without you guys pinning your posts to the SteemitWorldMap, and supporting us in curating these awesome posts every day.
We've enjoyed reading all the travel posts on the Map over the year and thought it would be great to kick off 2020 with a contest that allows everyone to relive your best Steemitworldmap memories.

Ooooh weee! Did you see all of those quality posts?! Great job ‘@‘ everyone, dang, I don’t know much about real estate but that’s a lot. It’s a pleasure to be mentioned amongst each of you, thanks for having me, @steemitworldmap.
PS—About choosing the winners—yeah, good luck with that! 😉
Well you even joined in twice! That is quite an effort! Looking forward to reading them! And thanks, we will manage, we are training every day ;) - But yeah, this is the creme de la creme, the "best of" so to speak!!! a really great read!
I figured three would’ve probably been over the top and one was common so I chose ‘neutral.’
Totally kidding, by the way. Not about the ‘good luck’ part, not kidding at all about that. Great competition you guys!
Hahaha yes! It is brave to do so! also shows you did a lot of good quality, and it was even hard for you to choose between your own posts ;)
I sure am glad you found my response seeing how I sent it to myself like a rookie! 🤔 “Oops!”
Happens 😅😊

Well thanks for the compliment! Without all of you guys this wouldn't be a great place to be, so it is our pleasure!
A lot of good posts for a high level contest, I wish you good luck for not having a big headache to make the result 😂
Haha thanks! I think we will find some winners! But it is true! We have a lot of high quality here! It will be hard to choose - Good thing we are more than one in the team ;)

Hi, i followed your video on how to put a link on your map. I put the code at the end of my post but still no comment from you to tell it's ok... Can you please help me, thanks.
Hey there! We will check right away. Also feel free to join our discord channel to be directly in touch with the team! https://discord.gg/JY7Saz
Thank you for sponsoring this great contest to begin 2020 @steemitworldmap. Your app is a remarkable demonstration of what is possible on our Steem blockchain, with its awesome supplementary features. It is to me a very successful example of what "can be" with some creativity and hard work.
Others understandably point to games linked "in here" to demonstrate the potential of Steem. As I am not a gamer nor much interested in anything related to it, their app is a much more "real world" application, in my mind.
You've already accomplished a great deal. Still around, I am looking forward to what creative additions / enhancements you make to this app in 2020. 👍
P.S. After a prompt from @wanderin, tried writing this comment via the use of the travelfeed.io interface, but it said this post wasn't in their feed! So ... That interface referred me to the use of SteemPeak to write it! 😉
Thanks for your entry @roleerob and we're happy that the contest has motivated you to start writing again.
The team have launched a new mobile app called Haveyoubeenhere during SteemFest last year. That lets you post you travels on the go and is very convenient for travellers. You can find out more about it here. Hopefully when you do more travelling, you can try it out. Your posts last year were such an eyeopener.
Thank you @steemitworldmap, for your recommendation. I will have to check into it! I appreciate all that your team does for our Steem blockchain!
Congratulations @steemitworldmap!
Your post was mentioned in the Steem Hit Parade in the following category:
Wow again so much support from the community!! Incredible!! Thanks @everyone! And thanks @arcange for pointing it out!

Reviewing the experience of 4 favorite trips is like traveling again. I have read several of these publications and the descriptions are wonderful. Best regards to all
