Where I would never travel

What place in the world do you never want to visit? Why?

There are countless places that I would love to visit, however, there are some that make me pause, and it comes down to values.

Travel, for me, is about feeling safe and free to be myself. That is why I struggle with the idea of visiting countries where personal freedoms are restricted, or where people can face discrimination for who they are or who they love.

It’s not a judgement on the people, many are welcoming and open but it is more about the laws and systems in place. Places like North Korea, Russia, or parts of the Middle East often come to mind. I would simply be too scared to visit here, worried for my safety, simply for being a gay man.

I am freedom-loving ☺️
