1052 - ENCORE-Stress-Free Gaycation

Welcome to Gay Travel Today! I’m Teraj and I’ll be your guide as we explore, engage and indulge in the world of LGBTQ+ travel today.

If you’re planning to hit up a new vacation spot in the states this year, it totally goes without say, that you should try lodging at a gay resort! These locations provide a stress-and judgement-free environment, so you can be your true and authentic self. One of the many highlights is the Vista Grande. This resort oozes Palm Springs retro-chic with its pale green and blush pink aesthetic. The grounds are noted as being the best part – a blue lagoon, complete with a waterfall, adds to the picturesque surroundings and desert mountain poolside view. Boatslip Resort in Provincetown offers a relaxing time with bright and breezy sea-front rooms and its well known “Tea Dance” event that is hosted every summer afternoon by the pool. AxelBeach Miami is an exclusive paradise whose facilities – such as a pool, the Sky Bar overlooking Washington Avenue, Spa & Gym, the restaurant, and Lobby Bar – all will ensure that you enjoy an authentic Axel experience in Miami Beach. Last but not least, is Alexander’s Guesthouse in Key West which is right by the waterside and housed in a gorgeously restored 1902 building with white clapboard walls and deep green vegetation.

1051 - ENCORE-Wanderlust Podcasts for Diehard Travelers

I love story telling, and there is nothing more enjoyable then getting an account of someone’s travels first hand, which can easily be obtained through some of these popular podcasts. “Extremities” takes you to some of the most remote places on the planet, documenting a journey into Pitcairn Island in the South Pacific Ocean between Chile and Australia, Svalbard Archipelago between continental Norway and the North Pole; and St. Helena in the South Atlantic. “Trekking Nepal: Your Adventure Guide,” documents the journey of one couple who goes against the odds to scale mountains and travel the lands of Nepal and the Himalayas.

Welcome to Gay Travel Today! I’m Teraj and I’ll be your guide as we explore, engage and indulge in the world of LGBTQ+ travel today.

International travel from the U.S. may be on pause, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t domestic sights to behold! The four corners of the country have stunning landscapes, culture and sights, so why not give them a try on your next adventure! In the Northwest, we have Alaska’s midnight sun, aurora borealis, museums and sanctuaries that pay tribute to the state’s wildlife and native people. In the Southwest, we have Hawaii’s westernmost main island, Ka Lae on Hawaii’s Big Island, made up of volcanic rock. Maine is the most Northeastern state in the U.S. Here you can go biking, hiking, canoeing, kayaking, fishing and be on the lookout for the state’s famous moose. Finally, in the Southeast, you’ll find one of the nation’s most popular tourist destinations, the Florida Keys. Here you can witness the coral reefs and beautiful marine life by snorkeling and scuba diving. Have you been to all four corners of the United States?

1049 - ENCORE-See Newport, Rhode Island, Seaside

Welcome to Gay Travel Today! I’m Teraj and I’ll be your guide as we explore, engage and indulge in the world of LGBTQ+ travel today.

Let’s head to Newport, Rhode Island for a little bit of seaside comfort, delicious food and rich history. One of the best ways to get a beautiful view of the New England-esque landscape is by ferry. Once arriving on the dock, you can grab delicious dishes from mom-and-pop restaurants like Mission, which serve up what locals call the “best burger in town” and thick-cut, crispy french fries. Be sure to check out the port’s beautiful mansions like “The Breakers,” which is the most famous of the Newport mansions, because it was once the Vanderbilt’s summer cottage. Another place full of history is the Redwood Library, which is the nation’s oldest, continuously operating community library, filled with historic paintings, sculptures and a rotating art gallery. The Newport Art Museum also features unique works and exhibits of antique and modern art, like that of queer artist Caleb Cole. Have you been to Newport, Rhode Island?

1048 - ENCORE-Hazmat Travel Gear

Welcome to Gay Travel Today! I’m Teraj and I’ll be your guide as we explore, engage and indulge in the world of LGBTQ+ travel today.

Would you wear a futuristic space-age hazmat suit to return to air travel. Naomi Campbell did it at the beginning of the pandemic but now you could be fashioning the new look of the futuristic BioVYZR on your next flight! Its developers believe it’s a way to allow more passengers on planes and provide safer, cleaner air during flights. The device is fitted over the head and shoulders, resembling an astronaut suit, with a bubble-like hood, large anti-fogging face shield and a Powered Air Purifying Respirator that uses hospital-grade air-purifying technology – all for the price of $249. The creator, Yezin Al-Qaysi, says the TSA has not seen his design yet but if airliners begin looking to the BioVYZER for air travel, he’d incorporate some modifications that allow for users to have easy access for emergency oxygen masks in-flight. Take a look at this future-forward BioVYZER suit and let us know if you would use it on your next flight by using the #GayTravelToday and #Sagitravel hashtags.
