OurPick encouragement program is part of the @Liotes ecosystem, where quality posts are curated. Authors are encouraged to keep creating content, adding value to various communities, and contributing to Hive overall.

Occasionally, we will select a couple of outstanding posts that we find particularly interesting and suggest them for your further reading... We hope this helps authors as an additional promotional tool... We support creators with our upvotes in Hive, as well in other tribe tokens! These Hive-Engine tribes add extra value to the entire ecosystem, helping authors and curators follow their niches and dreams...


Are those 99 castles all on Portuguese territory? I don't know where it was, but I do remember one museum in Spain having those machines for torture... I know I wasn't able to stay too long in that room, and it was hard to forget what I saw there... Have no idea how people were (probably some still are) so cruel and perverse as to "invent" those machines at all!
My wife is a big fan of old castles, so maybe on our next trip to Portugal, we could go and follow your pins from that map!


It's a pity that Seth didn't do better, but it's a good lesson for the future... On the other hand, you probably saw the nicest part of Italy! I love those small Italian villages, and we stayed a couple of times in the Lago di Garda area, but also around Venice and Padua too... What I still have on my agenda is to finally go visit those "famous" Italian Dolomites... I heard so many great stories about it, and yours is another on top of it...


Those photos taken before the rain/storm are amazing! When I saw them, I knew they were taken before or after the rain... Those weather conditions are perfect, especially when you are lucky to have those sunrays coming through the dark clouds... It's like taking a photo in the golden hour, but covering just part of the image...
As I grew up by the river, I liked all photos where water is included... 😃 They are calming just by looking at...


So many great additions to already great 3Speak! It's a pity that we didn't have this kind of development a few years ago, as maybe we would be in a much better position today... Anyway, I'm glad that we have you guys shipping awesome stuff and creating so much value to Hivians, and those who will become Hivians...
Having a professional video platform like 3Speak changes a lot in the whole HIVE ecosystem... Our home looks better and better, and we are not inviting new users to a messy house, but rather to a cozy home full of value for them!


Loving yourself means looking after yourself, and as you quite rightly said, if we don’t know how to look after ourselves, how can we look after others? I think that’s the foundation of everything. Feeling well, knowing what to eat, the right amounts, the need for exercise- it’s all part of a whole that we must learn and put into practice… and we’d also be setting an example for others. Making excuses in advance is a sign that, deep down, you don’t really want to make the change, but verbally you make yourself look good by saying the right things or seeking advice, when in reality you won’t do anything.


It’s really interesting; I’d never heard of ginger root before, or what it was used for. When I lived in Argentina, it was very expensive and I never tried it. Then, when I moved here, I found it’s used all the time, and the first time I tried it was as a tea, it really is brilliant for colds, especially with lemon and honey. But this one you’ve brought us is useful for making other drinks, and I reckon the flavour will be amazing. I love seeing it bubble up, that’s how you know it’s ready to use.
