Hi guys,

Just signed up here. Please welcome me *teehee*. :D What a nice and interesting forum you have here. Frankly, I'm not much of a traveler but I'm planning to travel probably late this year or next. Possible destinations: Thailand and Hong Kong.

Hope to learn more about other destinations and fun adventures here. Cheers!

Welcome to the boards! Travelling is so addictive, do it once and your hooked . I haven't been to Thailand or HK but other tpunks have so I'm sure you'll get a lot of tips!

Welcome! The only thing more addictive than traveling are these boards.

There are tons of Tpunks who have visited Thailand so you probably will get a fair amount of good advice by checking out the Asia forum here
