Gay globetrotters

There sure are many travel blogs out there, some of them are really well written and reliable travel recourses with valuable information about the location. But we all know, that LGBT travelers have some additional needs for their travel planning, especially when it comes to how gay-friendly, open-minded, and save a travel destination actually is.

The niche of LGBT travel recoursesincluding our own gay gay globetrotters blog, is still quite a niche but they are existing. While focusing on LGBT events, circuit parties, and gay cruises, the married guys are really fun to hang out with. We met them in Chicago while attending Chicago Pride in and are in regular contact ever since.

The two guys from the UK travel blogging about their gay adventures.

Meet Sion & Ben – The Brits behind The Globetrotter Guys

The married couple met over 12 years ago which is, talking in gay-terms, a little eternity. Now, they settled down in Halifax, West Yorkshire.

Whilst Sion was at university, we made the most of his breaks by going on as many holidays as possible — city breaks, beach holidays even trips within the United Kingdom. It was always a given that once Sion had finished university we would venture further afield and really travel together, and so in we set off on our first big trip to Gay globetrotters and the southeast Asian countries.

In Januarywe both packed up our full-time jobs and left the UK on a one-way flight, with no plans to return anytime soon. Prior to leaving we had seen a huge rise in the popularity of travel blogs, and social media influencers creating travel-related content and in fact used a number of these to assist in planning our own trip.

LGBT owned businesses are more likely to face difficulties not only due to the financial challenges of entrepreneurship but also additional problems regarding their sexuality, gender, and gender identity.

Why we still need LGBT and gay pride events? Well, as long as people getting bullied at school, having to face hatred and bullying, and, in some countries, even having to face the death penalty, gay pride and LGBT events are necessary to fight for equality, support gay globetrotters ones in need and to show that being who you are is a human right.
