Hello, I'm Chase (he/they), a proud Midwest Dad with the best travel tips.
I share LGBTQIA+-friendly things to do in Chicago, the Midwest and beyond with a special love for unique stays, family road trips, and quirky roadside attractions. My content stands out for being authentic, community-centered, culture-forward, story-driven, and a little silly. Explore With Chase branded series include gay things to do, 24 gay hours in (destination), queer travel guides, and U-S-GAY Road Trips.
I've worked with 100+ inclusive brands and tourism organizations, including Uber, AT&T, Planned Parenthood, Airbnb, Lonely Planet, Travel Nevada, Pure Michigan, Visit Pennsylvania, and more. If you're looking to market your product, service or destination to LGBTQIA+ Chicagoans - I’d love to chat!
