Sarah’s Team Pick: GayTravel.com is Awesome for Gays that Travel

You guys probably know about GayTravel.com already because it’s awesome and really useful, but we wanted to make sure it’s on your radar. We like GayTravel for a lot of reasons, including their inclusion of womens’ events, their no-nonsense reviews, their avoidance of gay website-design cliches, and their understanding that gay travel is about queer-friendly places as well as queer-specific events.

This week, GayTravel.com is partnering with Autostraddle and sending me to Whistler to cover WinterPride 2011 Ski Week. I know, it almost seems too good to be true, but as sure as I am on an airplane right now, it is indeed true.

I suspect it will be just like that one episode of The L Word [312], without anyone getting stood up at their Big Gay Canadian wedding, or like Dinah Shore except in the winter (uh huh there’s this whole Women’s Party Thing going on too).

Look out for a review of the weekend at Whistler next week. It’s a bit late to grab yourself tickets to gay ski week (BUT THERE’S ALWAYS NEXT YEAR), but Whistler is a great gay vacation spot all the time. It’s #2 on GayTravel’s list of best places to visit.
