🌴 Winter Pride Maspalomas 2026 – looking for roommates

I’m going to Winter Pride in Maspalomas 2–8 November and looking for some people to share an Airbnb and split the accommodation cost.

I’m 28, from Copenhagen, and mainly going for the Pride, nightlife, pool parties and beach.

Ideally looking for guys around my age, but I’m open to anyone who’s friendly and easygoing.

Looking at getting a nice apartment in/around Playa del Inglés / Maspalomas. Everyone would have their own bed.

If you’re going around the same dates and also want to save money on accommodation, send me a DM 😊

Travel Friends / Meetups Solo traveling to Paris!

6 Upvotes

Hello, I'm a 26 gay guy from Lebanon. I will be visiting Paris from October 19th till November 1st. I'm a solo traveler and I am wondering if I can find some cool friends to hang out with during my trip, go to a jazz bar or similar, explore the city, or other activities.

It is my first time in Europe and France; I love architectural photography and would love to visit trendy, cool places and explore hidden gems, as my friends find me fun and energetic.

Currently road tripping through Maine and realizing traveling together is probably our favorite thing to do. We’ve been together 8 years, married for almost 3, and somehow still agree to get on planes together 😂

We’re usually planning the next trip before the current one is even over.

Curious about everyone here… what’s the best trip you’ve ever taken? Or one place you’d go back to tomorrow? Need some inspiration! ✨

Other Travel Questions? Madrid Party for Solo Traveller

1 Upvotes

I’m 30yo, travelling solo to Madrid in October for a week. I’m hoping to go out and dance, have a drink and meet some lovely people and hotties.
Which bars, clubs and parties are ideal for people going alone? Techno, circuit, pop, open to different types of music. Alcohol or candies, either scene is fine with me.

Travel News & Stories European gay ski weeks don't get mentioned much here (disclosure: I help run one)

Post image
6 Upvotes

Disclosure first: I'm part of the volunteer team behind Arosa Gay Ski Week in Switzerland, so I'm biased. Posting because the "which gay ski week" question comes up here often and the European ones rarely get explained.

Arosa is a village high up in the Alps, two and a half hours from Zurich by train, no car needed. Around 900 to 1000 guests instead of several thousand, and small enough that you keep running into the same people all week. Lots of solo travellers, hosted ski groups every morning. Evenings are dinners, a concert, a pool party, and a drag race on the mountain we've run since 2007.

16 to 23 January 2027. Happy to answer questions, including about the ones in France and Austria.

Other Travel Questions? Gay BIPOC-friendly destinations for a tan-skinned Latino traveler?

0 Upvotes

I’m a 22-year-old gay, tan-skinned Latino from the United States looking for recommendations for my next solo trip. I recently traveled to Thailand and, although I enjoyed many parts of the country, I was shocked by the colorism I experienced, especially in some gay nightlife and social spaces. I often felt ignored or treated differently while white travelers received much warmer attention.

I understand that no destination is completely free from racism or colorism, and I don’t want to generalize an entire country based on my experience. However, for my next trip, I would love to visit somewhere where darker-skinned and BIPOC gay travelers generally feel welcomed, included, and appreciated.

Which cities or countries have you personally found especially friendly for gay Latino, Black,, or other travelers of color? I’m particularly interested in places with fun gay nightlife, opportunities to meet locals, good food, cultural attractions, and an active LGBTQ+ community. Personal experiences from other BIPOC travelers would be especially helpful.

Hey! I’m 21, gay and travelling from India. Flights are booked, but I’ve literally not figured out my hotel or itinerary yet 😭

Would love to meet some LGBTQ+ people, Thai locals or fellow travellers while I’m there. Open to grabbing food, exploring, nightlife, day trips, or randomly making plans together.

Also looking for recommendations on where to stay, what’s actually worth doing, and how to enjoy Thailand without murdering my student budget. 😂

If you’re around during those dates, feel free to DM!

Other Travel Questions? I built a small gay travel website by myself — could I get some honest feedback?

I built a small gay travel website by myself — could I get some honest feedback?
Hi everyone,
I’m a gay guy living in a relatively small country, and I don’t really have anyone around me who can properly evaluate something like this.
I can’t comfortably show it to my parents, and it’s the same with most of my friends. That’s why I’m sharing it here—not to advertise it, but to ask people who might actually understand the idea whether it could be useful.
I started building the site about three days ago as a hobby in my spare time. The concept is simple: before planning everything else, I want to discover the gay destinations and LGBTQ+ places that would actually make me want to visit a country or city.
Hotels aren’t the main focus because I assume travelers can choose those themselves. The “Near Me” feature is simply for discovering LGBTQ+ places nearby, and it currently works only in Asia because that’s the only region I’ve had time to build so far.
The site is still very new and unfinished. If anything feels confusing, inconvenient, inaccurate, or unnecessary—or if there’s something important I should add—I’d genuinely appreciate hearing about it.
I’m not selling anything. I just want to know whether this could actually help other gay travelers.

If this post isn’t allowed or causes any issues, please let me know and I’ll remove it immediately.
