It’s early morning – Christmas Day – in gay Havana. Sunlight splashes along the worn brick pathways of Calle Obispo as the sun struggles to rise above the faded colonial buildings of Havana Vieja (it seems to be as drowsy as I am). With each passing minute the buildings take on new life as the... The post Gay Havana: classic cars, Caribbean beaches & beautiful boys (Part 3) appeared first on %%BLOGDESLINK ..read more

I know you think I’m crazy, but as I keep saying, December in northern Europe really isn’t that bad. Though, I’m sure...

Like Brussels, Amsterdam in December is probably not what you imagine. Amsterdam was the second, and main, stop on my tour of northern Europe in December 2016. I’d visited Amsterdam before, in 2011 and had quite an interesting time. I got most of the touristy stuff out of the way back then (the Heineken Museum,...

I know what you’re thinking, “Brussels in December? Are you crazy?” Admittedly, winter is not exactly the height of Europe’s tourist season. Well, aside from those Christmas Market cruises down the Rhine, which are super touristy – and also something I’m dying to do. However, winter in many parts of Europe is not as bad...

Ottawa was so much more than I expected it to be, not that I really had any expectations going in.

So, two weeks... The post Exploring Ottawa appeared first on %%BLOGDESLINK ..read more

I just logged into my site for the first time in about two months and discovered this draft post – “Gay Dalat – Two Boys Exploring Vietnam’s Central Highlands.” Just reading the post title brought back a lot of memories, and a lot of pain.
