#1 SPARRING SEALS - A blog from The Map to Paradise - A documentary by Bluebottle Films
@bluebottlefilms takes us to Deception Island, Antartica. At the end of our planet, there is a ghost town, which at one time hosted whalers. The seals on the island were killed and skinned for their pelts, blubber and meat. Luckily, this story ends well with end of commercial sealing in 1931, nature has recovered it's territory and is now thriving here!

#2 Land of Extinct Volcanoes part 13/16 - Granite Rock Formations
@miosha takes us to the Karpnicka Mountain Pass in Poland, from where she plans on a 5 hour hike. The trail is lingered with beautiful rock formations, some shaped by nature alone and some with human intervention. The views along the trail, definitely make it worthwhile as well! That is not to say there is no danger though, as an encounter with a European viper shows!

#3 Koh Phuket - Vegetarian Festival / Fest der neun Kaisergötter
@betterthanhome takes us to the Vegetarian Festival in Phuket, Thailand. Whilst the festival is called the vegetarian festival (due to their only being vegetarian food eaten during that time), it is mostly known for its ceremonies, some of which are quite gruesome. While @betterthanhome missed the gruesome ones (they're mostly early in the morning), he definitely managed to indulge in the amazing food!

Wow! Thank you for the honorable mention. 😊
I wasn't expecting this at all. The place in my post isn't a recomendable destination for anyone, let alone for travelers. Ah ahaha 🤣🤣🤣
I totally dig urban exploring, so I definitely think it's a cool place for other people to know about, haha!
Well picked!
Thanks, we try our best each day!
