FOOD AND TRAVEL Vacations

Travel Spotting: Go on a Gaycation

Written by Gary

Contrary to popular belief you don’t have to drop a lot of money or travel to distant places in order to get a good vacation. Im sure you have heard of the idea of “Staycations” where you just stay put and pamper yourself.  You turn your phone off, throw on a purifying face mask and relish in your free time.

To take it one step further, I suggest a gaycation.

We all need breaks from our lives from time to time, and if its one thing I  know it is that gay people take hedonism to a whole new level. Tell your boyfriend you are going away for a while, turn off your phone, and rent a hotel in the middle of downtown (with double beds). Call a few of your gay friends, and ask them to call a few of their gay friends. Invite them all to your hotel (you should probably buy a few bottles) and let the hilarity ensue. Then, just go along with whatever they are doing for the weekend. A few things you can expect from a Gaycation:

Lots of drinking.

Lots of dancing, without middle aged men with open button-downs trying to finger your butthole on the dancefloor.

Lots of laughing. This is good for your abs. Every good vacation involves a little exercise.

Experiencing new clubs that you have never thought to go to before.

Ridiculously fabulous cultural events.

One Hell of a Sunday brunch, which lasts 9 hours, most likely comes with unlimited mimosas, and a commences at Sunday afternoon rooftop bar where you probably take your top off.

Just make sure you keep a key to your hotel room. The situation may occur when everyone in your party finds a guy to keep them company. This is your cue to go back to your hotel, take a long bubble bath, and relish in the fact that you are doing something totally different than the norm, while still managing to stay within a 50 mile radius of your real life.
