Good morning, Echo, and welcome to Go-Lo! It's wonderful 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 Go-Lo, you may want to take a few minutes to join several of our many other groups which you might find of particular interest, such as Media Only!, Georgia, Eating/Drinking the World, and various others covering many topics, and most other destinations throughout the Caribbean, Africa, and the world.

FYI, on your profile you'll see a blue bar marked "Text Box," which you can turn into a box containing not just text but also photos and even videos about yourself and your writing.

Finally, if you would, please be so kind as to spread the word among your travel-interested friends, family, colleagues, and 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!). Any coverage of Go-Lo you could provide in your outlets would of course also be hugely appreciated.

We wish you the best of luck in the rest of 2009 and beyond and look forward to hearing much more from you... !
