Show Notes
Traveling as a queer couple can bring up a lot of questions, like:
Is the queer community safe where we want to travel?
Should we hold hands?
What countries are "gay-friendly" and which are just giving lip service?
In this episode, we discuss LGBTQ+ travel from the perspective of Alex and Chris - aka Burrito and Tortilla. We discuss safety concerns, misgendering, advocating for yourself, understanding your privilege as a queer traveler, and what resources are available to the traveling LGBTQ+ community!
