Live a life of wanderlust with these 11 LGBTI travel bloggers
Travelling the world is a beautiful thing. Travelling the world vicariously through others while you pluck up the courage to take the plunge yourself is priceless.
These bloggers leave no stone unturned in showing you the wonderful things out there for the LGBTI traveller as well as giving advice, sharing knowledge and overall showing you that you can do it to.
In no particular order, here are the travellers we insist you follow, now:
Hailing from Phoenix, Arizona, married couple of ten years Auston and David now call Madrid, Spain their base camp. From Iceland to South America, this hot couple has scoured the planet to unlock the secrets of LGBTI travel and be the best Two Bad Tourists they could be.
We joined Two Bad Tourists on their #mygaypride summer campaign, taking on European prides from Barcelona to Cologne to share what it means to be proud at pride across the continent.

The dynamic duo to end all dynamic duos – plus the gorgeous Lisa Malling.
These lesbian vloggers bring you the best of the best when it comes to LGBTI travel on video, having over 3 seasons of vlogging goodness with another two being filmed as we speak.
Leaving Los Angeles in search of adventure and clean(er) air, Bly and Lauren flew transatlantic to explore Europe, picking up passengers along the way in the form of Lauren’s beautiful swedish girlfriend and musician Lisa Halling.
These girls can fly from NYC to London on different flights without phones or any means of contact and still find each other; they are meant to be.

Cheeky chappy and all-round soul of the party Jaime is one of those guys that will party until an hour before he needs to leave for a flight – that’s right, one of those.
If you want to see a life lived to it’s fullest and on the edge, follow Jaime as he discovers a world beyond Houston, Texas on his second around the world adventure.
‘Take a chance, take a risk, make a change and break away…’
*He loves him some Kelly Clarkson!

Former LGBTQ activist turned lesbian blogger and wanderluster, Meg Ten Eyck, has been a travelling on-and-off all her life before finally buying a one-way ticket to South Korea in 2013; she never looked back.
From guides to having mind-blowing hostel sex to finding (unlikely) faith in Cologne Cathedral, Meg keeps open-minded and doesn’t shy away from what it means to be a true traveller, teaching us the strategies needed to keep on the road.

Who wouldn’t want to follow two handsome men across the world? Trust us, we’d go to the ends of the earth for a beautiful man!
Stefan, an ex-lawyer of greek origin, and Sebastien, a self proclaimed IT geek from France, met and became friends in London before jacking in their jobs in 2014 to take on their dreams of wanderlust and explore the culinary world.
Two greedy gay boys exploring the world – says it all really!

Thanks @bluemarlinkomodo for an awesome few days diving in paradise! Scuba diving by the islands around #Labuanbajo near #Flores #Indonesia has been absolutely incredible and some of the best we’ve ever experienced. We played with sharks on pretty much every dive, then became blasé towards them as we encountered turtles, fighting moray eels and schools of fish dancing around us, and much much more. Even spied a manta. If you’re coming to Indonesia for diving, word on the grapevine is that Flores is The Place for it. And we were not disappointed!

We like these boys, so give them some love:
