Letsgoto: Jaipur, India
If you had asked me a few years ago what are the top countries that I'd like to visit, India would have been in the top 3. Why? Well I guess I fell in love with India when I was doing a history report in high school. My report consisted of everything about India, from its history to its architecture, literature, culture, politics - everything.
Another reason is that I love to do street photography and India is a perfect place for it
WOW! A real snake charmer makes an appearance in @suitcasemama's post today! And so much more... from the city palace's fabulous architecture to the goods being sold on at this street market. You have to stop over and see this busy Market Friday post.

As Sweet As Sugar Cane
The sugar in particular, I think that Latin Americans are very happy for all because of our excess sugar, which together with the sun, the beautiful seas that surround our continent make it very special character.
I always thought that cane sugar was America; as a child, I was given to suck cane, and for me, nibbling and snatching the sweet elixir at the tip of my lung was an adventure
Did you know that real sugar cane actually looks a lot like bamboo? Come along for an educational post about sugar cane and see where sugar cane originated from.

Market Friday- More Sweetness For You
Today we are returning to Bonjour, a French bakery and café.
I say returning because this is my second trip and the first time I only posted a photo or two for another challenge so this will be a bigger post that shows a lot more of the inside and what they have to offer. Bonjour is located at 6070 Falls Road in Baltimore, Maryland. The outside is very colorful and welcoming. I love the combination of colors they chose for the outside and they have a quaint little area outside that you can sit and enjoy some coffee and one of their beautiful and delicious bakery goods
Oh I can definitely see why @deerjay went back a second time! Look at that miniature chocolate mousse cake and macchiato she had while visiting this quaint bakery and store. Wait until you see all the delectable goodies inside!

@abh12345, aka Asher- My Vote For The Most Undervalued Steemian
I particularly want to bring light to @abh12345, aka Asher. I know most of the people in my circles all know him. He is one of the biggest reasons that I am still here. I also know firsthand that is the case for many others too. The reason is simple, Asher has been prominent in not only engaging the minnows and newbies, but he has also been an active delegator to that same group
@davemccoy shares about his delegations and how larger account steemians have helped him along the way. Its all about the platform and helping others succeed to him; see what has been happening to him and his account with the generosity of so many fellow members.

Leaving The Mount Of Pati
Today I recounted my experience while exploring / traveling in the area of Mount Pati.
Yesterday I and my friends idly walk around the area of Mount Pati, want to know aja atmosphere in the countryside what it looks like and I also do not forget to immortalize it, which I take most of the rice field, forest, and looks behind the mountain. that day I was exploring the area of Star Mountain through the path of Manyaran area, not from Ungaran area
Let's go for a hike with @doyanphotography today and see some beautiful plantations, mountains in the distance and where natural beauty is everywhere you look.

Steemauto Curation Trail
 | The new curation trail is active and running! If you would like to support your fellow Qurites or just earn some extra curation feel free to join our curation trail that is active on Steemauto. Steemauto guide and registration info |
We suggest not following the trail with 100%, steemauto has 2 ways of following a trail, static or scaled. We suggest using SCALED instead of static since static votes can add up quickly and drain VP very fast. We suggest using scaled and then maybe around 25%.
Steemauto can show us who is currently on the trail and at what percentage. Looking forward to see more Qurites joining the trail in the near future! We also reward the team players and there might be a nice surprise for a lucky trailer. =P

Congrats, my friends @rebelstar and @txatxy! How wonderful! Well deserved, enjoy your prizes!
Thank You @nolasco
Congratulations! All
Thank you so much for the feature @qurator! India is one of my favorite places with lovely people - and very easy to photograph, even the snakes are photogenic :)
<3 @suitcasemama
You're very welcome! The snakes must be super pretty there :D :D
I have a question about the @qustodian paid upvote, could someone help me? I just sent 0.40 SBD which at the current SBD price of $1.19ish would be about 47 to 48 cents. The bot returned an upvote of 59 cents. The add says it Upvotes your post 2.35 times your amount of SBD sent. So my question is, shouldn't my upvote have been higher or am I missing something here. I'm not sure I understand the math there because I'm going to lose 25% of that upvote to curation which will actually put me in a negative return position. Does anyone understand this?
Hello, if you look at your wallet history, you receieved a refund from Qustodian.
The bot it set to limit upvotes, so that the VP doesnt drain too fast. All members have their own Votebank Balance and if you send more sbd than the Votebank balance shows, the bot will refund the excess. That is what happened in your case.
You sent 0.401, got refunded 0.154. So the amount of 0.247 sbd was used to upvote your post. You received 0.580 upvote, which is 2.348 times th amount used.
You can check your current votebank on Discord in
#Qurator-Assistantroom with a command!profile jonnyla08.Feel free to contact me directly on Discord if you need any help :)
Thank you so much 🙌🙌
You're welcome! Congrats again :)
Thank you @davemccoy and @qurator for the feature! :D
