It argues that backpacking isn't universally accessible, presenting unique challenges for LGBTQ+ travelers compared to their heterosexual, cisgender counterparts.
The book explores how local customs and legal frameworks in countries like Thailand, Argentina, and Spain affect the safety and comfort of LGBTQ+ backpackers.
The book combines social science insights with practical travel advice, addressing budget constraints and offering tips for finding LGBTQ+-friendly accommodations and transportation.
By integrating queer theory, tourism studies, and economic geography, it highlights the intersection of travel, social justice, and human rights.
Through case studies and personal narratives, the book demonstrates both the challenges and resilience of LGBTQ+ individuals navigating these landscapes, supplementing data with firsthand accounts.
