What is the current status of Silk? Is it not still an open list?
Nope, currently memberships have to be approved by me. I changed things

My goal would be to meet people and to learn -- I'm less interested in being
a tourist as such. Better
It's an iterative process and at this point I'm wide open.
I'm not looking for a tour guide as such -- but it would be nice to have a
community I can connect with. It's a short visit so I don't expect too much.
PS: I realize I'll need a Visa to visit -- do you have preferred services?

I've found that being explicit takes the reader/listener's focus away from
