This is a nightlife guide for the Femmes, Gays, Thems, and Theys!
There's nothing like arriving in a new city and wondering where in the world your community spends time and unwinds 🍻
Never fear, I've participated in, like, all the wild nights out, so I've compiled the best and safest spaces for all LGBTQ+ folx to let loose and dance the night away 🏳️🌈

A classic spot on South Street that celebrates and uplifts everybody, girl, gay, or they. A must-visit when visiting Philadelphia as a girl who loves girls.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Traveling Tee
Available for hire
Hey! My name is Tee, and I'm from Philly, but at this point, my wanderlust has taken me all over the world. I spent time studying in Japan, and I lived in London for a while. Right now, I live in Chiang Mai, Thailand, where I've been for the past five or six years. I have been lucky to visit over 30 countries since I began traveling at 18 years old. I've got some solid tips for solo travelers, budget travelers, lady travelers, Black travelers, and the LGBTQ+ fam. I'm here to make traveling feel accessible and rewarding for everyone, no matter where you come from!
If you need tips for Southeast Asia, Asia, or the Eastern Seabord of the USA, I'm your girl. And if you still don't believe me hit me up on IG @traveling.tee and see all I've done so that I can bring you the best advice I possibly can!
