London. The greatest city in the world. One of the most exciting places to live in with THE best gay scene you’ll ever come across. FACT!
Of course, we’re totally biased! London was our home for decades and the place where we met – back in February 2009 in the GAY bar in Soho…
But setting aside our biases, London is truly a terrific city. It’s so eclectic, home to many different people from everywhere in the world.

This is our gay London.

We always feel safe walking hand-in-hand through most of London, particularly in the gay pockets of Soho, Vauxhall, and Clapham. However, as with every megacity, London has areas where you need to be careful regardless of whether you’re straight or gay.
Petty theft is common everywhere, so lock up valuables you don’t need with you in your hotel room, and ultimately follow your gut reaction… if you’re out solo in a dodgy-looking street in East London, best call an Uber to get back to your…
