#####Welcome to /r/TravelTales

> You are at the place where you post amazing stories from all your global adventures. 

#####Post your tale

> But first, be sure to have read our rules, the universal rediquette and try to keep your story written by yourself, interesting and concise. Be sure to add a **TL;DR** *[(at the top)](http://redd.it/297dtk)*, for all the lazy people out there!

-

##RULES

>#Don't spread the names of employees, specific hotels etc.
Feel free to tell a tale of a terrible package holiday or horrifyingly bad concierge, but don't specifically name and shame the hotel or employee themselves. Leave a review at TripAdvisor or other website for that.

>#Keep all posts/comments SFW
Derogatory, abusive or bigoted language will be removed. We reserve the right to remove posts and comments at *our own discretion*. Mild profanity in comments and posts is okay, but please keep titles profanity-free. No gore or porn.

>#No question posts.
We will remove posts that solely ask a question or give advice/information. Posts like *"has anyone ever encountered...", "what to do if..." and "can tourists please...".*

>#No complaint posts.
Feel free to complain about things in your post, but don't make posts where the sole intention is to complain about a city or something, or if most of the content of the post is complaining.

>#Don't self-promote.
You can link to your blog or website, but make sure the story stands alone. Use proper formatting - don't just paste a link into your post. Pictures are encouraged, but don't link to your blog just for pictures. Use imgur or something similar.

>#This is a curated space!
We will remove any bad quality posts and comments in order to foster and promote good discussion and keep bad stories to a minimum.
