As we commemorate Pride Month 🏳️🌈 we remember the historical struggles of the LGBTQ+ community in the US. From the Stonewall uprising to ongoing activism, the fight for equality continues. Sadly, this year has seen a surge in anti-queer legislation and we can’t stay silent so we kicked off Pride Month with a nod to the origins of Pride - we hosted a drag show! It’s a timely reminder that the fight for equality continues, because “all the struggle, all the fights so people like us can have a drag show and have fun...all of that is actively being chipped away in this country today.” This year has seen a surge in anti-queer legislation and we can’t afford to stay silent.
Creating safe spaces is one way to stand with and for our LGBTQ+ community. Join us this Pride Month as we spread love, celebrate diversity, and support LGBTQ+ rights.

“Oh sh*t I gotta meet these people.” Honestly, a regular thought process when you go on your first group trip. 😅 Inviting your community to join you IRL for a trip around the globe can be intimidating as heck. But, over 800 TrovaTrips have proven that the nerves are well worth it for the life-changing experiences you all have together. 🧡
If you’ve been feeling the nerves that come with hosting group travel — you’re not alone. We’ve teamed up with Hosts Brae Hunziker Photo and Mac Rosenquist to share their experiences firsthand because, well, no one says it better than our Hosts. 🌟
From leg-shaking anticipation leading up to the trip, to finally meeting the amazing people who make up their communities in-person, Brae and Mac’s trips across the globe have been nothing short of incredible. 🏔️ 🌴

Your crash course in group travel etiquette begins NOW! 💥
1️⃣ Patience is key! The more people - the longer the bathroom break 🚻
2️⃣ Be on time... Arriving fashionably late is not a thing on group trips 👀
3️⃣ Sharing is caring - no hoarding photos and buy the family-sized bag of chips 👍
4️⃣ Speak up! If you need a break or a window seat, say something 🗣
5️⃣ Mark your stuff, whether it's a water bottle or a headphone case it's easy to mix up 🙈
6️⃣ Listen to your Guide! We can't emphasize this one enough: your Guide is there to lead the way and keep you safe... it's literally their job👂
With these tips handy, you'll look like a group travel pro! 😎

Happy Palentine's Day! But wait, what's Palentine's Day? Simply put, it's a day to celebrate the people in your life who just GET you. 👯♂️
It can be hard to find those people, but one of the best ways to do it is by getting out of your comfort zone, fearlessly diving into your passions and yes, traveling the world with people you haven't met yet. 😱
Did you meet your twin flame on a #grouptrip? Tag the person/people you connected with and take us on a trip down memory lane! What brought you close? What experiences and memories did you share—push-up challenges? Matching tattoos? We're ready to cry... in a good way. 🥹

Your sign to immerse yourself in Thailand's cuisine has arrived and ⭐ surprise ⭐ it's filled with papaya and love. Follow the organic farming journey from soil, to seed, to kitchen and feast your eyes on the fruits of your labor... or you know, maybe some of this Som Tam. 🤤
Save this post, grab these ingredients and make your own Som Tam at home:
1 small to medium green (unripe) papaya, julienne and soak in ice water for 10 min
2 cloves garlic, peeled
Thai chilies, to taste
½ tsp raw sugar or white sugar
2-3 long beans, trimmed and cut to 2in
3 TBSP dry-roasted salted peanuts, more for garnish
1 TBSP dried shrimp
2 TBSP fresh lime juice and zest to taste
2 tsp tamarind juice
1 1/2 TBSP fish sauce, to taste
8 grape tomatoes, cut in half
Lettuce for serving (optional)
Mash the sugar, shrimp, lime juice, zest, tamarind juice and fish sauce in a mortar and pestle until it becomes wet and pastey. Add the garlic, chilies, beans and peanuts and pound until the beans are just broken and there are no more big chunks of garlic or chilies. Add the papaya and tomatoes and toss, slightly crushing as you go. Plate, sprinkle with crushed peanuts and try not to think about how much better this would taste in Thailand.

YES to dancing 'til dawn with a group of strangers. 🕺
YES to romping through the forest. 🌲
YES to laughing 'til you pee a little. 😂 🤫
