Welcome to the ASEAN Hive Community's "ASEAN Hiver Of The Week" post, where I (@justinparke) highlight one of our community members.
🧭 Traveler, Photographer, & Sometimes Both 🗺️

This week has gifted me a lot of bad luck. Yesterday Monkey-B broke our modem (our only way to access Hive) and then a few hours later our local cell phone tower went out of service. I waited patiently until 2am, but still no signal came so I couldn't even run a hotspot from my phone to curate and do ASEAN Hive things. Well, I woke up this morning knowing our voting power was surely 100%, so Monkey-B and I got in the tuk-tuk and drove to the next cell phone tower an hour away, and I am writing this later normal because of these circumstances.
This week's featured Hiver has been a fixture in ASEAN Hive for quite a long time, but in recent weeks he's become more active on Hive and also took himself all the way up to PLATINUM VIP status with a 1,000 HP+ delegation. He's a traveler and photographer, and it certainly shows in his content because you'll never know what Southeast Asian country his shots will be from. For a long time I thought he was Filipino because he shared so much content from that part of the world, but he's actually Malaysian.
I particularly enjoy content from folks living outside of their own culture, language, or religion, and the content of travelers too, mostly because I see myself in content like this, but also because I sometimes it's easier for outsiders to offer an unbiased perspective in situations like this. This gentlemen has a knack for photography, and his English writing ability is very good, and this makes his post very engaging.
If I haven't already mentioned it, I should also note that he is an engaged community member too and you're just as likely to see him in the comments section as you are to see a post of his in our community feed. One of his most recent posts has him working as an electrician helping to establish a new mini cafe, so he's much more than a traveler and photographer, and that's all the reason you should directly visit his blog and have a scroll, I guarantee you'll find something worthy of a read and upvote.

Thanks so much for the highlight. ;). I have been solo travel for almost 3 years around ASEAN few years ago before going back to Sabah and yeah , slow down a little bit after the covid and spend more time with my family especially my retired parent. I still uploading some photo in my previous journey in some hive photography contest plus my personal experience .

Yes I realize you are not traveling as far as you once did, but your content has changed with time and is very interesting to read as always. I like how we can be our natural selves on Hive unlike YouTube and other mainstream social media where we have to gain as many followers as possible. I feel like I personally know all of the people that interact with my posts, and that value can't be underestimated.
Well, the way I see it, you still approach content creation as a traveler. albeit a little closer to home these days. You're a valued member of ASEAN Hive my friend, and I hope you keep being awesome.
I might going travel again but not full timer as before , i have some plan to building some business here. Building my portfolio in our place is very challenging in our place when other photographer keep fighting the price with each other. It was sad story because it very hard to get good job here compare at other country.
Well , i really love joining photography contest in HIVE because that the only thing i know . !LOLZ
By the way , thanks for being friend and provide home for us in AH . You just awesome admin of AH .
CHEERS !!

Congratulations to the winners this Week,they are all great hivers,I still fight and want to be like them even though I have to keep working hard to achieve maximum results.
Every small journey is progress . Even it slow and fast , we will reach the destination as long we keep moving forward.
That's right what you said, I totally agree with your words, keep moving, God willing, I will one day succeed in achieving my ideals.
Hive is almost always a tough journey in the beginning, it took me over a year before I started get more than a $1 for my post payouts. You are an undervalued content creator, but your posts are of high-quality and your engagement exemplary. I hope in time you will get the recognition you deserve on Hive.
Thank you my friend @justinparke.
Who continues to support me,I really appreciate it.
It is true what you say, that the struggles in the early hives do have to be patient.
I keep fighting for it until I get my ideals,and I want to last forever here, because I think my new job is a lot of fun.
I love to take travel also. That is one of my favorite hóbbies in life. By the way, I would like to congratulate @tommyl33 for choosing as hiver of the week.
Thanks so much . ;). @theunstoppable12 . Let's go for travel sometimes.
Yes. I would like also to share my travel adventure here in this community.
His travels certainly provide him with plenty of Hive content.
