Summary

"Hostile Area Alerts" addresses the critical need for LGBTQ travel safety information in a world where acceptance varies drastically. It identifies countries where LGBTQ individuals face heightened risks due to discriminatory laws, social hostility, and surveillance. The book highlights the disturbing reality that a lack of awareness about LGBTQ-specific dangers can lead to harassment, imprisonment, or violence.

 
For example, many nations still criminalize same-sex relationships, with penalties ranging from fines to imprisonment.

 
The book progresses from a global overview of LGBTQ rights to detailed examinations of social and cultural contexts that fuel hostility. A dedicated section explores surveillance practices targeting LGBTQ individuals, offering practical advice on digital privacy. Drawing on reports from human rights organizations and firsthand accounts, "Hostile Area Alerts" employs a mixed-methods approach, combining data with personal narratives.

 
The book provides strategies for risk assessment and mitigation, empowering LGBTQ travelers to make informed decisions and advocate for a more inclusive world.
Available since: 04/07/2025.

  • France’s Most Famous Palaces: The History and Legacy of Versailles the Louvre and the Tuileries - cover

    France’s Most Famous Palaces:...

    For the French, and those who study their history, Versailles is a symbol of, as Charles Dickens once put it, “the best of times…the worst of times.” It was here that the Sun King, Louis XIV, built a palace worthy of a great nation during a time when peace was, at best, short-lived. It was at Versailles that Russian Tsar Peter the Great studied the palace’s architecture and gardens so that he could recreate them in his home country. Indeed, the greatest minds and artistic geniuses of the later stages of the Renaissance came to Versailles to build and paint, and it was here that Madame de Pompadour and her successor, Madame du Barry, used their wit and beauty to charm a king into doing their bidding. 
	France, like all European countries, has had its fair share of palaces over time, but none suffered the rise and fall of fortune like the Tuileries. Built by a widow with a flair for architecture, it grew for more than a decade, along with the royal family that it housed. Then, during the French Revolution, it fell from grace with that family and even became a sight of execution, its famous gardens providing the background for the infamous guillotine.  
	The Louvre's very name conjures up scenes of art and elegance, and of long halls filled with beauty and people strolling through them whispering quietly among themselves about the glories they are witnessing. Even those who have never been to the Louvre know some of its most prized possessions, from ancient statues to Leonardo Da Vinci’s “Mona Lisa”. As the world’s largest museum, the Louvre is unquestionably the cultural highpoint of Paris, a city that has long been considered the cultural center of Europe.

    Guatemala - High Life Low Life

    Fresh from a night in a Miami jail, Steven lands in Guatemala City, ready for riotous road trips fuelled by booze, cocaine and passionate curiosity about people from all walks of life.


His guide? Antonio, a sweet-natured, streetwise hotel concierge who shepherds Steven through colonial Antigua, the volcanic shores of Lake Atitlán and the untamed beaches of Monterrico. Danger is never far off, but neither are laughs – and there's plenty of both when Steven accompanies Antonio on a visit to his rural home village. Then there's Anabella, a glamourous, garrulous, middle-aged woman with whom Steven strikes up an unlikely friendship, accompanying her back to the capital with her family. There he mooches an open-ended stay in her gated community, which bristles with armed guards and famous eccentrics.


Froelich's gonzo travelogue is a darkly hilarious, unapologetic plunge into beauty and madness, privilege and privation. With a raw, witty voice, Froelich explores the absurdities of the human condition, never letting truth get in the way of a good story.
