Welcome to the LGBTIQ section of my travel blog! In the beginning, there was a websites for gay & lesbians in Vienna, Austria, called gayinvienna.com. The site included more and more about the city and its attractions and sights as a whole and so it evolved into a site for LGTBIQ tourists. But when it took the next step, we didn't want to ignore our roots and this is why all LGBTIQ+ related articles are concentrated in this section of the blog. For now, articles about LGBTIQ Vienna are the majority, over time LGBTIQ content from other places of the globe will be included. Of course, you will also find the LGBTIQ+ articles at the respective destination to where it fits location wise.
