@waegook_tom
OK, so this one is pretty shameless - it’s my IG account! From duckface selfies to foodporn and city parks to cute cafes, my photos have the fun factor, and occasionally the WTF factor, too. Most are from Taipei, considering I live there right now, but snaps from the likes of Bangkok, Belgrade, Milan and Edinburgh have all popped up, among others.
Of course, there are a whole host of other gay travellers on Instagram just waiting for you to follow them, but these 15 users are a good start. Now go swoon over their travel photos, drool over the foodporn pics, and try not to roll your eyes too much at all the selfies.
