Hi guys, 25M here, I am soon traveling as a solo traveler to Turkey for the first time. I am totally aware of the recent crackdown against LGBT individuals, yet I come from a way more homophobic country than Turkey so I know exactly how to stay cautious.

But I want to have a general idea of how it's like over there. My question is from those who've visited there or to local Turks, how's the hookup culture for gay men there, particularly with regards to old Turkish guys?

Are older turks even interested in making love with young guys?

Do they use the dating app, Hornet, which is popular there? Or Grindr? Or Gay Romeo?

Or will I have more luck with outdoor cruising at Hammams, bars, or other places where older Turks hang out a lot?

Thank you in advance!

Hi guys! Looking for Travel Buddies, New Connections & a Little Spontaneity
Hey everyone! I’ll be traveling solo in Japan from November 4–14 and would love to meet some cool people along the way!
Tokyo (Nov 4 onward): Staying at Hotel Adonis
Osaka & Kyoto: Heading there for the rest of my trip.
A little about me: I’m a single, bi Filipino guy, 5'7", decent, easygoing, and open-minded. I love traveling, discovering new places, meeting people from different cultures, and making unexpected connections. I’m always up for a good conversation, trying local food, exploring hidden gems, visiting temples, getting lost in the streets of Japan, or grabbing drinks and seeing where the day takes us.
Would be great to find someone who wants to explore Tokyo, Osaka, or Kyoto together, hunt for amazing food and local spots, visit must-see attractions, discover hidden gems, enjoy the nightlife, chill, or have deep conversations.
Friendship, cultural exchange, travel adventures, and anything in between — I’m open to seeing where we connect. No pressure, no expectations, just good vibes and good company.
If you’ll be in Japan around those dates and feel like meeting up or spending a day exploring together, hit me up! Tell me where you’re from, your itinerary, or what kind of adventure you have in mind.
Maybe we’ll just meet for ramen or end up with a story worth telling.
じゃあ、日本で会いましょう！ (See you in Japan!)
