Best Sydney Gay Bars, Clubs and Nightlife – The Nomadic Boys

by
Best Sydney Gay Bars, Clubs and Nightlife - The Nomadic Boys

On our Sydney trip, we dove straight into the gay scene around Oxford Street where the only thing sharper than the contour lines is the wit of the queens!

In a city where even the seagulls have perfected the art of a well-executed death drop, choosing the best drag shows is like picking your favorite child – impossible, but you secretly have one. So, grab your sequined cape, because Seby and I are about to guide you through the rhinestone-studded labyrinth of performances that had us clapping so hard, we almost spilled our cosmos!

Best Sydney Gay Bars, Clubs and Nightlife

From dazzling queens that could outshine the Sydney Opera House to performances so fierce they could make a kangaroo blush, we’ve left no rhinestone unturned in our quest to tell you about the best drag shows in Sydney…it’s also why we rate Sydney as one of the most gay friendly cities in the world. So buckle up, darlings as we take you to the best Sydney gay bars, on a journey more extravagant than a drag queen’s wardrobe…

Gay Egypt: Safe for LGBTQ+ Travelers? – The Nomadic Boys

by
The Nomadic Boys at the Giza Pyramids in gay Egypt

Is it Safe to Visit Gay Egypt?

For years we’ve both wanted to visit the pyramids of Giza and immerse ourselves in the remnants of what was once an incredible Kingdom.

For Seby in particular, visiting gay Egypt has always been a lifelong ambition. Since he was a little boy he’s been obsessed with Ancient Egypt, carrying an Ankh (the hieroglyphic symbol for ‘life’) in his wallet to watch over him. He’s even decorated his entire left arm and torso with beautiful intricate tattoos of Ancient Egyptian symbols.

However, Egypt is not the most welcoming destination for gay travelers by a long shot. Whilst they don’t have an explicit anti-gay law in place, the government and local police find other ways to target and harass the local LGBTQ community even using Grindr to target/arrest gay guys…yes really!

Following our experience traveling as a gay couple in Egypt, we can confidently say it’s actually fine…BUT!

Visiting Gay Newcastle – The Globetrotter Guys

Gay Newcastle

The Globetrotter Guys Visit Gay Newcastle

Few UK cities conjure up such a distinct visual image as Newcastle. Think Newcastle and you will immediately start picturing buzzing and vibrant nightlife, the iconic Angel of the North statue, brown ale, and of course the people and their super friendly geordie accent.

But what about ‘gay Newcastle‘, what is on offer for LGBTQ+ travellers here?

For months we have been saying we want to explore more of the UK, and so when we were given the opportunity to travel to and spend a few days in this North East capital, we jumped at the chance!

As always, we couldn’t wait to explore and learn all about ‘gay Newcastle’ – but we were also very excited to explore this popular city in general.

We had a fantastic time, and were surprised by both how thriving the gay scene in Newcastle is, as well as the scope of sightseeing options and activities available.

Exploring the Scene in Gay Nice – The Globetrotter Guys

Exploring the Scene in Gay Nice - The Globetrotter Guys

Travel Guide to Gay Nice, France

Who knew Nice had one of the largest gay scenes in France after Paris and Marseille? We were pleasantly surprised to find that the beautiful coastal city of Nice on the Cote d’Azur has a thriving gay scene and that in all aspects of travel, Gay Nice has a lot to offer LGBTQ+ visitors.

With many gay bars, gay clubs, cruising clubs, queer book stores, saunas and gay events throughout the year, Nice has quietly grown into a super gay city destination. We have no doubt as more people learn about what it has to offer, it will become just as popular as other gay destinations in Europe such as Madrid, Stockholm and Mykonos.

The city itself is picture postcard perfect with its own unique character, culture and history. The city is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and no matter where you explore you will be impressed by Nice, whether the narrow cobbled streets, hillside parks and waterfall or the beaches along the coastline.
