Quentin Crisp

“Enthusiasm is all the rage in America. People want to lavish praise upon you, at which they are very good, and almost at every corner. People praise your appearance in the street, and I do not know of any other nation that does that. You see, strangers will walk by and say, ‘Oh, I like your outfit,’ and then walk on without expecting any reply because I think they want to feel a general feeling of acceptance, niceness, and happiness. And that is wonderful and so American.” ~ Quentin Crisp

Experience GaYbor/Ybor City at “The Rainbow Carriage House”

NOW OPEN “The Rainbow Carriage House”

Immerse yourself in the vibrant spirit of Ybor City and Tampa at The Rainbow Carriage House. This newly constructed 2-bedroom apartment is a true gem. The space is a harmonious blend of old and new, as the Hosts salvaged parts of their historic 1890 Cigar Forman home before it was demolished. From the doors and molding to the tin ceiling and wall paneling, every detail tells a story. Modern amenities like cable TV, wifi, central heat & air ensure your comfort. Admire local Ybor artists’ work throughout the home. Step outside to the patio area, complete with a fire pit and a beautiful butterfly garden made in the bamboo. With two designated off-street parking spaces, convenience is at your fingertips. The Rainbow Carriage House is a celebration of LGBTQ+ PRIDE, ROMANCE & LAUGHTER, offering a unique and unforgettable experience for all. https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/1064644321954518872

Fellow Travelers

The best in a very long time, Gay Film we have seen!!!! Taking place during the 1950’s and 1980’s. What a very different world the GLBT (done on purpose) lived in. This would be a very educational film for the Gen Z to watch. Unfortunately, they would not understand it. Matt Bomer just won the Critics Choice Award for best supporting Actor.  In a sign of united the cast all held hands at the awards. We are sure there will be more awards coming. Do not miss “Fellow Traveler” now on Amazon Prime.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_zI9UwYNQo
