Hi, nice to meet you my name is Gabriel I've moved to the USA several months ago, just started to get used. I am from Italy and been working there as a journalist for more than 5 years, came here for new opportunities, because the most famous celebrities and events are here. Came across your site even before moving to the USA, it was very useful all the time, so I decided to finally become a full member. Hope to become a part of your family.

You might like to advertise in the classifieds sections. However, you will be far better off looking for business opportunities on Linkedin and other such places.

@Julien

I'm Ron.  From usa.  I was in the army and discharged in 1975.  Since then I've always want to go back to Asia. Thing is. Years ago I caught a trafficking charge and did my 2 years In prison.  Now I want to go to the Phillipines, vietnam, thialand and possibly cambodia.   I just want to do 30 days in each country and maybe go back to vietnam for another 30 days and ride train to where ever intrest me. Where will my felony convection prevent me from going?  Phillipines is where I'm most worried about.

Thank you and I'm glad I found this community.   

Ron.
