Chris, welcome to Tripatini. I guess you live in Germany, and you're going to see a lot more talk about Germany over the next year: The Society of American Travel Writers (SATW) will be holding its annual meeting in Leipzig (I think) and some other cities in October. Hoeffentlich, ich werde von dir lernen. (Yes, I know; my German skills have deteriorated.) Best wishes, Ed Wetschler, Executive Editor
Good afternoon, Chris, and welcome to Tripatini! It's great to have you with us -- and we think you'll find our site productive as well as interesting and enjoyable.
To get the most out of Tripatini, we recommend you take a moment to join several of our many groups which you may find of particular use, such as Florida, various European, Asia, and Latin American country groups, Eating/Drinking the World, our German language/culture club, and plenty of others covering many other topics and most destinations across the globe.
FYI, on your profile you'll see a green bar marked "Text Box," which you can turn into a box containing not just text but also photos and even videos about yourself, your travels, your work/studies, and more.
Finally, if you would, please be so kind as to spread the word among your travel-interested friends, family, colleagues, associates, and/or clients. It's fast and easy to use our "INVITE" function above left on the navigation bar to enter e-mails (even your whole list at once!). Finally, please join our Facebook fan page and follow us on Twitter (see front page info box); we'll be happy to reciprocate!
Thanks much for joining us; we wish you an outstanding rest of 2010, and it goes without saying that we look forward to seeing you online.
