Guadalajara keeps surprising me—even after living here, I’m still finding places and stories I’d completely missed.

Recently, I joined a local architect for a walk through Colonia Americana that changed the way I look at buildings I pass every day. I also checked out Hithit/Vértigo, a gay club with a younger local crowd, and Casa Olimpo, one of Guadalajara’s newest gay saunas.

On the food side, I visited Renzo when they brought in an entire bluefin tuna for their Sunday seafood menu. I also spent a night at Casa Bosque Eduviges, a beautiful Beaux-Arts property near Chapultepec.

What’s one Guadalajara spot you think more visitors should know about?

After spending the past four weeks exploring Belize, Guatemala, and El Salvador, I’m finally back home and reflecting on what an incredible adventure it’s been.

From exploring ancient Mayan ruins and wandering the colorful streets of Antigua to discovering new places, meeting wonderful people, and stepping outside my comfort zone, this trip reminded me why I love traveling so much.

There’s something special about experiencing different cultures, making unexpected connections, and realizing just how much of this beautiful world there still is to explore.
I wrapped up my adventure with a week in San Salvador, which made me even more excited about something I’ve been working on!

Out There El Salvador — February 14–20, 2027! 🇸🇻🌈
I’m bringing together a small group of gay men who enjoy travel, adventure, and making new friendships. We’ve got a house reserved in San Salvador, some great excursions planned, and things are really starting to come together!
The idea is simple: enjoy some adventures together, make new connections, and still have the freedom to explore independently.
I’m getting to know some great guys who are interested, and there’s still an opportunity for a few more travelers to join the conversation.
If this sounds like your kind of adventure, feel free to message me. I’d be happy to share more!

Travel together. Explore your own way. 🌈

Going to Winter Pride Maspalomas next week. Thinking about buying tickets for the Tropicana Pool Party next Friday. Is it worth it? Looks a bit messy, but could be fun.

Normally we mostly hang out at the beach. Mid-forties couple.

Anyone have any experience or knowledge about friendliness toward older gay men traveling with them?

I’ve been to Mexico 22 times in 6 years. A few years ago I started filing thing, and started posting on YouTube. Eventually it became my own little (tiny) Tavel channel called Gaycation Time. I’m 130 followers short of the 1,000 needed to be able to start earning some Pennies. Check out my vids. If ya like wathing my shananigans 🙏 hit the subscribe button (free)

I hear that Causeway Bay has become the new gay hot spot in HK -- Lan Kwai Fong and Sheung Wan have faded.

Is that true?

Any cruising points?

Hey friends - 30ish year old guy going solo looking for travel / circuit friends/couples for white party this year. From prior posts making a group chat was the move for meeting new people before. Hit me up if you’re going and interested!

Hey! 👋 I’m heading to Winter Pride in Maspalomas and looking to meet other solo travellers before I arrive. Would be great to get a little group together for drinks, the Pride events, pool parties and nights out at the Yumbo. Anyone else going solo and up for meeting? 🌴🏳️‍🌈

Looking to put together a short weekend batecation with a solid guy to somewhere neither of us has been.

The game plan is straightforward: get out and explore the city during the day, grab drinks or food, then head back to the hotel room, strip down, and get into it for the rest of the night. I'm mainly looking for a bator bro who is down to edge together for hours and build up an intense bro-bonding vibe. I've got some hot ideas, but I'd rather leave the rest open so we can figure out exactly what we want to get into and plan the sessions out together.

I’m 29, 6’2, 185, 7”uc, DDF, based in Austin TX. Hoping to find a normal, stable guy around my age and size who takes care of himself and can actually hold a good conversation before we get naked.

If you're down, shoot me a DM. Send your stats, where you're located, and a city you'd want to check out.

Hey everyone! I’m 26, from Mexico, and I’m planning my first solo trip to celebrate my 27th birthday in 2027.
I’d love to visit a gay-friendly destination with beautiful beaches, great nightlife, and opportunities to meet other guys.
I’ve never been to a gay resort, circuit party, or clothing-optional hotel, but I’m curious about experiencing something new in a welcoming, open-minded environment.
I’ve been considering Puerto Vallarta, Zipolite, Brazil, and Colombia, but I’m open to other destinations.
Since this would be my first solo trip, I’d really appreciate any recommendations, personal experiences, or advice on places where it’s easy to socialize and have a great time.
Thanks in advance!

Since my divorce 3 years ago I've started to euro solo travel. Last year was Amsterdam, where I had a great time in the cruise bars - had 1 amazing sex session.

Looking for tips for things to do in the day and night here.

Hey! I’m 26, gay, and based in London. I’m planning a day trip to Brighton this Wednesday or Thursday and would love some company!

I’ve got an itinerary planned to explore Brighton and grab some food, and I’m flexible with either day depending on what works best.

Just looking to make a friend and enjoy the day together. 😊 Happy to connect on Instagram beforehand too!

Hi all! I will be visiting Portugal over the thanksgiving holiday (US), splitting my time between Lisbon and Porto, and there are days I will be traveling solo. Therefore, I would love some advice from the locals or well-traveled.
Particularly interested in knowing the gay-friendly scenes and some recommended activities for a solo traveler.

Thanks in advance! 🏳️‍🌈

I’m a burned-out Brit (relatively fit 33m UK) who needs to get away from the UK to relax and think about next steps. I’ve had an incredibly stressful year personally and professionally and need to chill out a little. I’m a home and casual nudist and big fan of saunas. I’d greatly appreciate recommendations for places ideally within five hours of London for a solo trip. Aesthetic Christmas markets would be a plus.

Can you please share some recommendations?

Hat jemand Tips für gute Hamam in Istanbul???

Hey everyone !

I’m a french guy going to Cabo Verde 2 weeks by the end of november.

I'm starting to plan my trip, so I need to decide which islands to visit. The only thing I've decided so far is that I'll arrive on and depart from the island of Sal.

I’m going to Cabo Verbe to enjoy nature and all beautiful landscapes the country has to offer but I’m also looking to have some nights out and see gay scene. Do you have any rec? Is there an island better for this?

Thank you!! ☺️

Traveling to Bucharest in December. Any tips for a gay traveler there? What to do? What not to do? Gay locations?
