You may want to take a few minutes to join several more of our many groups which you might find of particular interest besides Travel Media Corner, including the Book Club, Japan, UK, Washington State, other US states, and other countries throughout Asia and the rest of the world.
Finally, if you would, please be so kind to spread the word among your travel-interested friends, family, and colleagues. We wish you a great rest of the summer, and look forward to hearing more from you!
