Behind the guide
Research backstage.
A simple guide up front.
We do enough homework to make a guide useful, then get the homework out of your way. The public pages focus on where to go, what a place is like, how to find it, and what to check before leaving.
We make a big starter list
Official tourism guides, venue pages, community organizations, event calendars, maps, and established queer travel directories help us find possible places. This list is internal—not a public recommendation.
We check the basics
For a normal public listing, we want to know that the place is real and active, why it belongs in this guide, where it is, and where you can find its latest information.
We write for a first visit
Descriptions answer ordinary questions: Is it a bar, club, shop, landmark, or event? Who might enjoy it? What makes it useful? Which area can you combine it with?
We do not pretend to know everything
Hours, covers, ticket links, and weekly programs change quickly. We link the official page and show an update date instead of filling every gap with a warning.
Private spaces stay private
Support groups, health services, faith communities, and vulnerable spaces are not turned into attractions just to make a directory look complete.
Your correction joins the queue
A report about a closure, move, access issue, or wrong description creates an editor task. It never changes a public page automatically.
