What is it like traveling solo as a gay guy?

I’ve been traveling for about 6 weeks now and I have had a blast exploring Europe going to different hostels and getting to meet people which has been really unique.

If I were home, I would be going specifically to gay places to meet other gay people. But the hostel scene is really welcoming, and you get to make friends who don’t necessarily identify as you do. So, like some of the best friends I made, have been completely straight men and there still like cool and we would go and it’s not awkward at all like it would be back in the States!
