The GayBombay Sunday Meet: Gay Holidays & Travel 

This Gaybombay meeting this Sunday (6th March) will be on the gay way to take holidays and travel! We've just noticed how many more people seem to be travelling abroad on holiday these days. Its possible, its affordable, there are many great new destinations opening up now... and its a great way to meet other gay people!

One of the GB regulars who's a travel industry professional will explain about the practical side of things. How to plan holidays. How to look for the best deals. The pros and cons of the different ways of booking tickets. And while I don't think he's had direct experience in this, he'll apply his knowledge to dealing with gay specific problems like the occasional hassles that single gay men or gay couples might face.

Date: Sunday, March 06, 2005

Time: 5:00PM - 6:00PM IST (GMT+05:30)

The Meet begins at 5:00 p.m. and continues for an hour at the restaurant. We may then move on to another venue close by for an informal chat.

Venue : We meet as usual at Just Around The Corner (JATC). JATC is a lovely snack bar at Bandra (West).

At Bandra Station, on the WEST side, take a rickshaw to Turner Road; at Turner Road take a right at Tawaa Restaurant (you will see an ICICI Bank on your left after the turn). Keep going straight for about two minutes; you will see the big blue signboard of  'JUST AROUND THE CORNER' on the left.

If you are however coming from Linking Road, take the very next left turn from the first petrol pump, leading to the Flying Machine Store. On driving down the crossing of two lanes you shall see a huge blue coloured board with "JUST AROUND THE CORNER" written onto it.

You can also take a bus going down Turner Road (Khar Station bus or Chumm Village bus). Get off near Tawaa Restaurant and walk to JATC in 5 minutes.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Note :
1. Ensure that you get to JATC before 6:00 pm - in case the evening carries over to another gay-friendly place close by.

2. You have to be above the age of 18 to attend this event.

3. GB as a support group, has created this comfort/safe space for gays, many of whom may be "newbies" (those still coming to terms with their sexuality and who have mustered courage to come for such a meeting for the first time). So we request you to be sensitive to the comfort levels of others attending the meeting and behave and dress accordingly.
