Greetings ASEAN Hivers, this week's challenge is focused on dumplings, whether fried, steamed, boiled, so grab your chopsticks and join us.

🥟 Dumpling Dreams 🥢

👨‍💻 Week #125 👩‍💻

^{September 9th ➡️ September 16th, 2024}

     Dumplings can be found throughout Southeast Asia, whether it be the soon kueh of Singapore, siopao in the Philippines, Thailand's thung thong, of any of the other amazing dumplings available in Southeast Asia, please share them for this week's challenge. You can pinch, fold, or roll them, then boil, steam, or fry them, there are many ways to approach a dumpling.

     You don't need to share a recipe, you can even just showcase some dumplings you bought on the roadside, but please share details like the name, ingredients, history, etc. Challenges like this one are fun for me because they showcase the different culinary and cultural historical influences of each location, and of course I'm a foodie too, so dumplings seem a fitting them for an ASEAN Hive challenge.

Week #124 ASEAN Hive Challenge Winners
🛵 Motorcycle Trips 🏍️

     I should've known a moto challenge would be a hit in ASEAN Hive. There were several entries, all good reads and full of interesting motorbikes and destinations. We even got to see a proper dirtbike trip in the Philippines, something I don't see very often here in Cambodia. If you have the time, give all three winning posts a read, and consider supporting anything of interest.

Motorcycle Trip with Gel and Lyn: A Short Visit to a Friend and To Satiate Our Indian Mango Cravings
by: @ruffatotmeee

When I was young, I often imagined myself being a cool person who knew how to drive a motorcycle. You know those action scenes where a woman was driving a motorcycle while wearing a very cool outfit, I want to be like that. That's how I always imagined myself back then. How the idea got into my head was also because of those Tagalog romance pocketbooks that I read, they are also packed with action - some of them, I mean. And that's why I really want that version of me. But then, I never really learned how to drive a motorcycle. Mom wants to teach me now so I can drive her new motorcycle, but I'm the one who's saying no.

ASEAN Hive Community Challenge #124 Motorcycle Trips
by: @usagigallardo015

Happy new week @asean.hive community a gloomy weather we have today. Honesty I have a stumbling stomach 😅 well it's already 9 in the morning Philippines time and still haven't eaten breakfast. Still on my in-laws house too, but what made me wrote is the time left before the community challenge end. Alright I heard a lot of shouting downstairs this is what I hate everytime we need to went in this place.

Motorcycle Trip To The Mountain
by: @crazygal

It had been a long time that I am working in this mountain. The road before was not yet completely concreted. When I was a new teacher, I paid 1000Ph for my trip to the mountain and going back home. That was the reason I was not going home and it based every end of the month. The place had no electricity and internet but now thanks God we have it all plus the concreted building and road. My sacrifices paid off and I bought motorcycle for my service trip to the mountain.
