Live is for experiencing, but I suspect a lot of people would be more nervous. Doing these things abroad may have extra risks depending on local laws and the degree of corruption. I visited place like Israel and Ukraine for work and I would be very wary of getting involved with the local police. Might have lost me my job anyway :)

You should spread your posts out and look to build your audience. We need a few more explorers on here really. There's only a few thousand active users overall and it may be smaller than some dedicated Facebook groups. I think Steem could do well in certain niches and I would think the urbexers would like the freedom it offers.

Steem on and have a !BEER. You will find there are various other tokens you can earn. I'm sure @slobberchops will clue you in on how it works with hashtags.
