Default New to TravelPUNK!

Hi everyone!

I am new to TravelPUNK My brother, Joe7F, is loving this site and highly recommended that I join too, since I frequently travel with him. I have been to Canada, England, France, Spain, Ireland, and Japan. What better way to broaden our perception of the world than to experience it first hand!

P.S. I already have TravelPUNK stickers - next time I take a trip, I will spread the word...

Joe's bro eh?? Nice to see that he roped you in - I'm surprised he didn't get you to go to the TO campout as your Tpunk initiation.

WELCOME, and enjoy...before long tpunk will own your soul, muahaha. :D

Nice to see your bro sent you our way. I bet you will contribute more to this sight than you would've thought. Because it does indeed brainwash you and take over your internet life!!!

I knew it was just a matter of time before she would decide to be like her big brother

Hey Em, if you are going to be in Tampa tomorrow we can have a meetup in the living room.

if this is a set up for you to have the most meetups, my vote is that it doesnt count . your brother's ulterior motives aside welcome to the boards.
