#1 Maniq Tribe, Thailand - Tripreport by @worldcapture

Today I want to tell you my story of one of the most exciting things I've done in my life. Meeting a Tribe called Maniq in the jungle of south Thailand. A few months back I started to ask around my friends here in Thailand if anyone has any idea or information about tribes living in Thailand - Most refused. Some have heard about tribes but did not have any further information about them. After some time has past another friend texted me about an article in the newspaper which showed a story of a farmer who lives near a tribe and also supports them. After contacting the farmer we were able to get more information and also the "permission" to visit the tribe together with them.

#2 Elmina Castle - Ghana - Africa by @for91days

Constructed in 1482 by the Portuguese, who called it São Jorge da Mina, Elmina Castle is the oldest existent colonial structure in Sub-Saharan Africa. It’s held up beautifully throughout the centuries, but as a center for the transatlantic slave trade, much of its history is dark. We took a tour, during which we were confronted with the unthinkable conditions suffered by the prisoners, before they were shipped off to the New World.

#3 ENG - ITA I went to the ancient raft race in Valstagna in northern Italy, and it was a delirium! - Discovering Italy with alequandro by @alequandro

Hello everyone!Last week I didn't plan to do a reportage on an ancient village festival, but that's exactly what happened! Last Sunday I was in Valstagna, a small village in the countryside, bordered by the Brenta River and the ancient raft race was taking place! Nine teams representing the city districts would compete in a reckless speed race along the river.
