Andy S.

I am a mature married gay bear man with a young man’s sense of humor and an energetic outlook. I have worked in the Architecture & Design industry for hotels and resorts and fine dining for almost 30 years. I have a college degree in Business Administration plus extensive industry education in Lighting and Electrical theory.

Regarding LGBTQ+ travel, I am a certified Ambassador with Visit Greater Palm Springs tourism and have been a travel advisor and tour guide for over 2 years. I am an avid RVer/Carvaner, DIY home remodeler, amateur chef, wine and cocktail enthusiast. In addition to that I am a theater fan, gardener, rail fan, naturist/nudist, and a volunteer at the local HIV, Bear, and Leather charities.

Your tour of the greater Palm Springs oasis and our self proclaimed rainbow bubble can be as relaxed or as active as you like. We have beautiful hiking and biking if you like; or there are great bars, restaurants, cannabis lounges, shopping, swimming pools, bingo, drag shows, casinos, theater, and sightseeing. I love to show new visitors our hidden gems, and I love to show repeat visitors things they've never seen before. I can take you around during the day, during the evening, or at night.

We're like family to each other. LGBTQ+ travelers have a delightful sense of humor and a wonderful sense of adventure and curiosity. Plus our city and our valley are VERY VERY LGBTQ+ friendly, so it's a joy guiding new and old friends to new and favorite places and experiences.
