Our winners today


🥇 ALONGE THE RIVER IN LITTLE VENICE by @ladytruckview

This time I was a bit lucky and the light worked in my favor. Usually, when I plan my trips on the road, I explore mostly during the day. Somehow I feel safer when I am already back in my truck after dark. Here, however, the situation was a little different, because I was only a few kilometers away from my truck and I managed to get back within 30 minutes by bike, before it got completely dark, while also taking advantage of the golden hour.

🥈 Day trip to Colonia del Sacramento, Uruguay by @livinguktaiwan

Colonia del Sacremento was founded by the Portugese in in the late 17th century, and today the historical quarter is designated as a UNESCO world heritage site. We walked through the old city gates at the San Miguel Bastion (top left below) into the historical quarter. Many of the old streets were lined with cobblestone, and the beautiful purple bougainvillea plants made this area a popular spot for IG posts. The Calle de los Suspiros (Street of Sigh) on the left is the most famous streets It looks straight out into the sea and when you're standing there with the old houses on both sides, it feels like you're transported back a few centuries ago.

Scotney is an old country house. The original castle was built in the 14th century and a new house was built on the hill above in Victorian times. The owners left the old castle as a ruin surrounded by a large moat.
