After twelve years of hosting travelers during the Fiestas de la Calle San Sebastián—and spending most of those years navigating the festival with increasing levels of sobriety myself—I've learned something crucial: you don't need a liter of rum to enjoy Puerto Rico's answer to Mardi Gras. You just need better strategy than the tourists (queer, straight, or otherwise undecided) stumbling down Calle San Sebastián at 2 AM looking for a bathroom that isn't being actively cleaned by an attendant who's clearly seen too much.
Where wellness, recovery, and authentic queer connection meet in Puerto Rico's vibrant, inclusive community. After twelve years of hosting conscious travelers in my Miramar home—and many years into my own sobriety—I've learned something crucial: the richest queer community experiences don't happen in clubs at 2am. They happen over morning coffee, at sunset beach walks, in yoga studios, and in those unfiltered late-night kitchen conversations where you realize you're not alone.
CELEBRATE with the Flamboyán Foundation for the Arts
September 13 10:00 a.m. - 9:00 p.m.
There are few experiences that remind us why we fell in love with travel in the first place. Vieques' bioluminescent bay—one of only three in the world—is precisely that sort of magic. After years of hosting discerning guests who've returned with tales of paddling through liquid starlight, we present a curated collection of the island's most reputable tour operators.
