96. Discovering ‘Inherent Belonging’ Through Travel with LGBTQ+ Travel Writer Lindsey Danis

If you linger on the internet after searching for the best queer travel destinations, you’re guaranteed to see the same list over and over again: California, Mexico, Spain, Iceland, and the likes. This can be especially frustrating considering that the LGBTQ+ community devotes an extra 12 hours to travel research and planning. Should we keep visiting the same destinations, time and time again, with the conversation only centering around safety? Author and LGBTQ+ travel expert Lindsey Danis thinks not. In today’s episode, Lindsey shares about her newest book, a compilation of everything she wished she knew when she started traveling with her wife. Venturing outside of the standard “Best Queer Travel Destinations" list, Lindsey leaves listeners with tools to not only stay as safe as possible, but also be grounded, embodied, and tapped into joy and inherent belonging during our adventures. Tune in to learn about the powering of “lingering" in a destination, explore surprisingly welcoming countries for queer travelers, and learn why TSA Pre-Check is a game changer for trans and gender non-conforming people.
