OCD DAILY - Issue #379

Welcome to the 379th issue of @OCD Daily!

Issue #379 highlights content from ten (10) Steem Content Creators! The OCD team continues its search throughout Steem to find you the undervalued gems, as provided by relatively new users.

Today our curators found ten (10) new pieces of original content! We strive to find works that are created by newer Steem users, that may not have the audience with which to share their quality content. @OCD strives to help provide that audience and intends to showcase Steem users who put in the extra effort to create creative, original content.

The @OCD nomination process

A curator will FIND a piece of work (typically from newer users). Within 24 hours that piece has been submitted from the curator to the @OCD team, curator votes are tallied, and the pieces with the most votes are included in the compilation.

We encourage you to visit these blogs and show these great Steemians your support and encouragement.

If you enjoyed their work, give them a Follow or maybe even say Hello!

All of the content chosen by our curators is undervalued, but there is always one piece that rises to the top. That piece is universally appreciated and valued by our curators making it OCD’s Top Nomination of the Day.

Our top nomination of the day is from @its.parth.hey

An extensive and intense read about how @its.parth.hey prepared for climbing the Mount Everest! Strength training, yoga, meditation, healthy diet are part of it, but also a resistance mask and overall smart hiking gear/light packing seems to be part of the recipe. After a lot of negative news reports about under-prepared Mountain Everest Climbers it seems like this smart Steemian actually did a lot of preparation. Congratulations!

Our next nomination of the day is from @fmbs25

A simple recipe for a fresh sour suce with cucumber perfect for side dish from @fmbs25. Well-written with step by step pictures. It should be easy to follow. Perhaps this weekend, this will be on your menu?

Our next nomination of the day is from @siavashgh

Truly amazing story from @siavashgh about celebrating life and people at the Rainbow Gathering in Georgia. Leaving technologies behind, connecting with each other, singing and dancing by the fire, hugging each other, running wild into the wild, and so so much more beautiful, peaceful harmony at the gathering. Are the corners of your mouth also rising and forming a smile reading this?

Our next nomination of the day is from @rayshiuimages

@rayshiuimages is taking us go Wat Phra Singh at Chiang Mai in Thailand. The temple here was simply stunning and @rayshiuimages was able to capture some photos as the sun was setting so the photos showed the extra shiny side of the temple. He also included some travel tips when visiting the temple so do take note if you decide to visit.

Our next nomination of the day is from @ayushijain

If its not enough inspiration to be wandering the pink city of Jaipur, India. You can visit the Jawahar Kala Kendra Center, a building entirely dedicated to arts and completely inspired by the city where it was built. Over there you can find just the right corner to let your mind fly.

Our next nomination of the day is from @yangyanje

@yangyanje draws a character which is actually his account name. The character is from a fictional tale he design. He describes the background story and his setup about this character.
He draws this painting with different materials, including acrylic, markers, spray paint. The story happened in China, so he draws dragon and tiger at the background that makes the composition look interesting.
