Gay Travel: Great Things to Do in Florence

Jan 23rd, 2013

The city of Florence, Italy represents many things to many people. Some travel there to trace the footsteps of the Medicis and the roots of the Renaissance. Others use Florence as a base for exploring surrounding Tuscany, one of the world's premier culinary regions. In nearly all cases, "cool" is not a world that's particularly associated with Florence - but that... read_more

Gay Travel: Tuscany Beyond the Leaning Tower

Dec 19th, 2012

Although Italy's Tuscany region, with its charming villas, rolling hills and romantic vineyards, is among the most stunning expanses in Europe, one attraction in particular seems to dominate the attention of tourists who visit Tuscany: The Leaning Tower of Pisa. The tilt of the tower, which stems from its poor construction in the 12th Century, has created huge demand from all... read_more

Gay Travel: Why I Love Italy

Dec 14th, 2012

I've traveled to some of the most far-flung places in the world, from time capsule river towns in Myanmar, to the deep reaches of the Moroccan Sahara desert, to the rain-drenched jungles of Colombia's Caribbean Coast. If it's off the beaten path, it's at the top of my travel bucket list. And yet Italy, whose paths are among the planet's most-beaten,... read_more

Gay Travel: Leave Your Daily Hell's Italy Week

Dec 10th, 2012

An extremely self-made man, it doesn't come as a surprise to most who meet me that I've become rather libertarian in my political viewpoints. Nonetheless, my friend Francesco was aghast at what I told him this past July, during my second trip to Italy. "You think they should just cut off rail service to the city, then?" We'd been sitting in... read_more

Gay Travel: The Hills of Florence

Gay Travel: Through Italy and Switzerland

Aug 23rd, 2012

Riding the train, often through vast, scenic vistas (even en route to Hogwarts) has been romanticized for years--in my own life, too. I've savored several memorable adventures: weaving through Europe, a Eurail Pass in hand, from Spain to Budapest literally consuming each destination's distinct culture, food, and drink. So, with great excitement and romance in mind, and loose-fitting pants we'd surely... read_more

Gay Travel: An American Grocery Shopping in Italy

Gay Travel: Tuscany Day Six - (Bad) Dinner and a Movie in Florence

Jul 13th, 2012

Since we planned to make a late night of it with a movie at the local LGBT center, we relaxed at Il Poggiolo delle Rose until about 7:30 PM.

Gay Travel : Tuscany Day Six - Palazzo Strozzi

Jul 12th, 2012

Our final Museum of the day (and probably the trip) was the Museo Strozzi, with two exhibits related to America.

Of particular interest to us - painter John Singer Sargent, who, according to... read_more

Gay Travel: Tuscany Day Five - We Visit Arezzo (Sort-Of)

Jul 7th, 2012

We set out this morning after breakfast for the outlet stores about 45 minutes away - after all, it was a Monday, and most of the museums in Florence were going to be closed for the day. Such is life in Italy. Also, we had cancelled our planned trip to Arezzo because of the ongoing rains. So we headed south, following directions... read_more
