The Netherlands tightens US travel advice for LGBTQ+ people.

The Netherlands has tightened its travel advice to the United States for LGBTQ+ people, highlighting an unease among European nations about the Trump administration removing protections for sexual minorities.

German and Finnish authorities have taken similar steps, and Belgium is planning to do the same.

Germany tightens travel advice to US after German nationals were detained.

The German foreign ministry has updated its travel advice for Germans travelling to the US after three German nationals were denied entry and detained as they tried to enter.

The country's foreign ministry clarified the updated guidance doesn’t constitute an official travel warning to the US.

Let's see if the fediverse is good for #TravelAdvice !

I'm visiting #London in 2 weeks. Staying in Hackney. I'm vegetarian, solo, not into sports & open minded.

What should I definitely do, visit, see, experience. Where should I certainly walk, look, hang or sit?

Should I bring my longboard, or is that a guarantee for broken kneecaps and infuriated natives?

Where and what should I definitely eat? Breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks?

What and where are friendly clubs and parties?

In Traveller today, I and a bunch of colleagues list all the underrated/overrated things in the world of travel.

Gotta agree with the colleague who suggested the sugary hotel 'welcome drink' is well overrated (just let me get to my room!).

Find it in print in The Age and Sydney Morning Herald today. The items are not all online yet, but will share when they are.
