Culture Vulture
The tag #culturevulture is a place where you can share something unique about your country with the world. Instead of being a tag about travel or tourism this tag is more about sharing local experiences. Let's get inside the hearts and souls of the Steemit Community.
This challenge has been running since July 2017. To date we have seen participants from; Japan, Armenia, Taiwan, Indonesia, Nigeria, Singapore, Hong Kong, India, Philippines, South Africa and Burma, France, Ireland, China, Vietnam, Borneo and more.
There has been 4,800 entries, 20,000 SBD generated in post payouts. Entries have received 98,000 votes and 31,000 comments. That is phenomenal engagement. The number of contributing authors has also just gone over the 1,000 mark which is a big milestone for this challenge.
If your new to Steemit, this challenge and others like it are a great way to get noticed and build your following and network.

Decisions
Our guest judge from this month is a very popular Steemian. @anomadsoul has been a supporter of '#culturevulture for many months and a mention by him last month in a post really sent Culture Vulture into Orbit.
