Newb!
Hello,
My name is Diana but I take on Di for short. I came across this site while looking for travel info since I am planning my first solo trip in the next few weeks to Europe (probably just Paris and London not sure yet). It's semi a last minute planning type of deal. I suck at planning. Errrhhmm.... I live in Miami, FL USA. I've been to New York, North Carolina, West Virginia, Tennessee, and New Jersey in the states. In the caribbean I've been to Cuba, Grand Cayman, Puerto Rico, Jamaica, St. Thomas, St. Maarten, and Cozumel off of Mexico. In China, I've been to Beijing, Tianjin, and Qingdao. Not an extensive international history but I'm hoping to change that this year!
I'm glad to meet everyone on the forum!
-Di

Welcome to TP Di.
You certainly joined up with the right crowd. I’m rather new to the site myself and have already received loads of advice through my own posted topics and reading those already posted. I’ve become fond of the whole ‘no question is a dumb question’ theory around this place. It seems no matter how many times these people get asked the same thing, they answer with all politeness and detail. So don’t be afraid to ask!
Happy travels!
Kimmy

^Yeah we are nice like that
Welcome aboard. Feel free to post any tips you have on Cuba and China, those are definitely among the lesser traveled countries for the boards.
