Hello fellow Hive citizens,
Welcome to the first "Introduce Your City (IYC)" contest.
We're very happy to host the first friendly competition in our new community and we're looking forward to each and every contribution from you.
The IYC contests will be held biweekly to begin with for you to ease into the topics.
The first contest has an easy topic. Let's have a look.
Topic Of The Week
SEATING ACCOMMODATIONS
Easy enough, right : )
The integral part is, it has to be in your town.
You can post as many pictures of as many different seating accommodations as you like.
It can be one picture and a funny or interesting story behind that picture.
Your creativity is the limit of what you can post with this topic.
Do you walk past a bench in a park every day and see different people rest on it? Snap a picture and tell us about it.
Or did you see a big boulder, which could be used as a resting place after a long walk? You know what to do.
Here are a few more examples, you could use as food for thought.
Yes, even the backs of horses are more or less comfortable to sit on and bike seats are seats as well 😉
The possibilities are endless. And we want all of them.
Just describe your photo(s) with a few words and a short introduction, which city or town you live in, if you like. But that is not a rule. If don't want to share your location, that is totally fine.
Our goal with these contests and overall with the Introduce Your City (IYC) community is to connect our towns and regions and to forge a bond between Hive-Users. Article by article, we'll accomplish this goal together.
