Good evening and a hearty welcome to Go-Lo! 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 the site, you may want to take a few minutes to join several other of our many groups which you might find of particular interest, such as Media Only, Eating/Drinking the World, The Caribbean, African Diaspora Travel, our Italian and Spanish language/culture clubs, and various others covering many topics and most countries throughout 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, your interests, travels, and AOL Blackvoices and your other outlets.

Finally, if you would, please be so kind as to spread the word among your travel-interested friends, family, colleagues, 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!). And we would of course also be very grateful if you were to have occasion to cover Go-Lo in any of your outlets.

We wish you a great rest of 2009 and look forward to hearing more from you...
