Hooking Up While Traveling: Queer Travel Tips

Hooking Up While Traveling: Queer Vacation Tips

Well, we are officially into the spring season, and the days (for the most part) are getting warmer, and most of us gays are just waiting for summer to officially start to go on vacation. While some of us want to hit up hot spots on our bucket list that are full of pretty scenery, history, and culture, there's a faction of our community that will literally plan out a vacation just for fucking. There's the thrill of hotel sex, there's the added energy of being in a different place, and it is nice to see some fresh face (and other body parts) on the hookup apps. Certain locales, like South America and Italy, are known for their hot and horny men and a week of exotic hookups can be worth the airline ticket. So we put together some tips and practices for you horny travelers who are looking for a fuckcation.

Location, Location, Location!

Where to go? Make sure you plan out your destination carefully for a dick-filled vacation. Look at areas that are known to be gay-friendly, have a vibrant nightlife, and are safe to travel to. Right now, there are a number of countries/cities that are not the safest place for a queer vacation. Picking a gay nude resort is highly recommended if you are looking for a central hub that will be buzzing with dick. Take a leap and pick a destination you haven't been before, or that you have always been afraid to try. Expand your horizon, just do your research before to make sure there are plenty of clubs and gay beaches that attract your fellow gays. We put together a list of gay nude resorts all over the globe. Check out travel reviews and Yelp reviews.

Pack It Up

Make sure you pack with a purpose. Have you been afraid to try those slutty shorts or that mesh shirt? Throw caution to the wind and pack a suitcase full of slutty and sexy outfits. You are on vacation, live a little, and don't be afraid to show off. Chances are, you won't know a single soul wherever you are heading. Don't pack those granny panties, pack the jockstrap, pack the see-through undies, be bold! Check out the local clubs before you go and see if they have any special outfit nights or an underwear night. Make sure you pack the lube and a backup tube as well. There are travel-size lubes available, so bring a few different choices. Also, pack condoms just in case. And for sure, don't forget enough doses of PrEP and Doxy. It is no fun bringing home an STD as a souvenir. Also, pack some fun toys, you never know if one of your exotic hookups wants to get a little kinky. There are ways to discreetly pack your sex toys so TSA will just smile and move your bag along.

The Apps

Many of the apps like Grindr and Sniffies can help you plan your dick schedule on your queer vacation. They have roaming and visiting features that you can use to go dick or ass hunting even before you head to the airport. Plan ahead, see where the hottest guys are, and start sending messages. Update your pics to something super flirty and change your bio to something extra sexy and explicit. Don't be shy on your fuckcation.

Safety First

You may be a big barebacker, but that doesn't mean you can't be safe. We have all heard the horror stories about gays being attacked while hooking up on vacation. There are crooks and homophobes and even police out there who are on the hunt for the wayward gay. If something in your gut doesn't feel right about a hookup or some public action, then don't do it. If someone won't share details about themselves with you on the app, it is not a good idea. If you are hosting at your hotel, we recommend taking a further step and meeting them outside of the hotel or in the lobby and having a drink or coffee with them before inviting them to your bed. Number one, there are public cameras, and number two, you can get to know them a bit and see if there are any weird vibes. Oh, and for heaven's sake, hide your valuables and wallet in the hotel safe. If you are going to their place, make sure you keep your phone GPS on or write down the address and leave it out somewhere in case you go missing. It sounds like overkill, but it is better to be safe than sorry. Also, make sure you check out the local gay sex and loitering laws. Just because you can be free in Weho and cruise behind The Abbey doesn't mean it is safe to do that all over the globe. Be cautious and aware. And even if that really hot Italian guy hands you a drink at the bar, make sure you saw the bartender pour it and that nothing happened to it.

Have fun hooking up on your vacation and tell us all the details!
