Gay city breaks

Best Places for Gay Holidays

Sorry for the radio silence here, but after having returned home to the USA for the holidays, I’ve had a lot of time to ponder and to reflect — mostly about the past year and a bit about the future. And in making some of my plans for the next year, I’ve thought a lot about the past year.

Namely the evidence that it’s probably been my gayest year ever. Is that even a thing? Who knows. I don’t care. But I feel like this was an important year for gay rights, and also for my own interest in gay travel.

Gay travel?!

Yeah, that topic again. Commute is travel, yes. But this year I’ve also realized just how many of my own trips and experiences are almost certainly chosen because of my own sexual preference. Where I’ve traveled to isn’t necessarily anything to do with the fact that I’m gay, I guess, but these are the places that I’ve found that are actually great for other gay travelers enjoy myself—either solo or for gay couples.

I recognize the concept of a “gay city” is strenuous to grasp, but I believe it&#;s necessary. In relation to facts, technically all our cities are inhabited by LGBTIQ folks. But what is a gay city? For me, it means a space where being homosexual is just like being heterosexual, where gay culture is open and welcomed, where we – queer people &#; can live in less fear. Unfortunately there are many problems and issues like random violence against gay people and hate crimes in almost every destination in the world, but the cities on this list aim at integration and especially respect.
