2. You can meet other solo travelers who need a buddy for an adventure
It’s safe to say that most people traveling solo still want to have some kind of human interaction at some point.

3. Your adventure buddy could turn into a date or life-long friend
You never know where you could meet your soul mate. Wouldn’t it be a fun story to say you met while backpacking in Italy? You can leave out the Grindr part.Latrice Royale gay lgbt travel

4. The ad points in the right direction
You may hate pop-up ads, but those apps will always have an ad or two for a party or event that is happening within a few days. Can’t hurt to check it out.

5. If all else fails, you can at least test out the hotel bed with that torso staying a few floors away.

Why I Hate Travel Blogs

Brian Marchetti gay travel blog

Nothing excites me the way traveling does. I guess you could say I have a permanent case of wanderlust. Dreaming up a new destination, booking a flight and a hotel then arriving and exploring, every step in the process excites me.

What I hope to accomplish with this blog: I hope I can help you discover (or re-discover) the excitement in travel. Whether it is a road trip through the Pacific Northwest, a weekend getaway to a bustling city or redeeming miles to fly in a luxurious international first class suite where you are served expensive champagne and caviar.

I also hope that with my blog, I can give a voice to other LGBT travelers out there and help them to discover all the wonderfully accepting locations and how to avoid trouble in the not so accepting locations.

What this blog won’t be: I have resisted starting a blog for some time. Not because I don’t have stories to share, but because I feel that many travel blogs spend too much time telling readers how and what they must do when visiting versus encouraging them to explore and discovering whatever is is that excites them in a city. I believe you should travel however you want.

With that, I hope you can leave my blog a little more excited and inspired to travel than when you came here.
