From guesthouses to bed-and-breakfast inns, Provincetown is among the most romantic getaway destinations in the United States for the LGBTQ community. At the end of Cape Cod at the very tip of Massachusetts, this coastal New England town is a free-thinking, avant-garde community of liberal thinkers all about equality. 

With a strong gay alliance, Provincetown is host to such wildly entertaining weekends as “Baby Dyke Weekend" (young lesbians that come to party and play in Provincetown), “Circuit Week” (buff gay men dancing to disco music), “Bear Week,” and “Girl Splash,” just to highlight a few. In fact, this picturesque destination, simply put, spells diversity and acceptance.

Raised in San Francisco, California, Jessica Arent views everything and everyone as “normal.” For her, there have never been boundaries nor obstacles. Travelling the world is Jessica’s passion, as she believes that the experiences of cultural immersion and adventure broaden our perspective of ourselves and the community around us, and further educate us in tolerance and an understanding that we are not all the same -- rather, we are an extraordinary, intertwined tapestry of differences and vibrant colors to be explored and experienced. Jessica has sought out opportunities throughout her career which have continued this journey in understanding, broadened her horizons, and strengthened her resolve and her character.

The mother of an OUT gay teen, Jessica advocates for equality with a force to be reckoned with, believing that we are all created equal, all entitled to live our lives fully and completely without bias or restraint, and every human being has the primal right to love and be loved in matrimony and union, if we so choose. A die-hard romantic herself, she is passionate about opening doors to a brave new world of romantic adventure and exploration. Writing about the places she has been, and the places you will go, allows her to leave her own indelible mark on the world, and make a difference in every extraordinary life she touches through her articles.
