Greetings travelers!

Welcome to the 16th week of the #swmchallenge where we travel around the globe and try to bring up to light the most unique and special places or events worth putting on the bucket list. Each week is filled with entries full of captivating scenary, stunning images and great stories, basically travel blogs worth checking out. So If you like to travel #swmchallenge is the place to go.


For those who still don't know about SteemitWorldMap

It is a fun tool made by @blueorgy and @martibis that allows you to pin your posts to a specific location or browse the world map where ideally every place on the map is a Steemit post. #swmchallenge is my attempt is to make it more popular and build a community around it.


Most interesting places we visited this week are:

#1 MOUTHGASM #6 : The Ultimate Shuckfest - Ostrelier Masterclass (London Oyster Week)

@buttpacker (s) take us on a mouth watering, culinary delight, trying out one of the most aphrodisiac foods known to man. Apparently it's so strong it permanently changed Normas brain chemistry and behaviour. In her defense, she was eating the aphrodisiac regularly since she was a child.

#2 Huge Waves clashing against the Icebergs pool

@ivansnz shows us where the famous Australian series called Bondi Beach Rescue was filmed. In his short blog you'll find, not only captivating images but a true gem in form of a video that I don't wan't to spoil for you so check it out yourself.

#3 1001 Arabian Nights In Sintra, Portugal: The Palace of Monserrate

@for91days takes us to a place that looks like it could be Aladdin's home. All jokes aside this place is amazing. I have never seen architecture this beautiful and unique, except some places in Thailand and Philipphines.

Man I like everything about your blogs and am thankful to have you in the challenge. Keep up the good work!

WOW! Thank you for picking us for top post - glad you didn't find my little homage to oysters too weird or soppy! πŸ˜‚

We've actually filmed a little (first ever) Mouthgasm video demonstrating how to shuck oysters. Maybe it's not as relevant to swmchallenge since it's filmed at my house, but for anyone interested, it is cumming soon! :3

Oh and I (the right butt cheek/Norma) will soon be embarking on a 5 month trip around the world. Can't wait to leave pins all over the map on every single continent! 😈

It was perfect!

hahah I love your dirty sense of humor. You really bring something special to your posts with it. Makes them unique and separates you from the rest. Keep building on it and I'm sure many will start appreciating it as much as I do.

Looking forward to seeing how your journey goes and what kind of oyster sucking techniques you have to show us.

Cheers!

Haha really? Damn, glad to see I'm not the only dirty minded weirdo then ;) Thank you so much for your kind words and motivation, plenty of Mouthgasm posts lined up!

Oh don't worry, I'll teach you how to suck like a pro 😈and shuck of course!

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Yes, I love it!

It really brings a kick to your blogs and leaves a fingerprint of your writing style that as I said separates you from the rest. Don't mention it. Thank you for being here and for bringing something special to #swmchallenge and Steemit itself.

:) Btw, do you have a full list of countries you will travel to in the trip around the world? Any chance you are comming to Croatia?

Thank you so much for the honourable mention!! πŸ’•
