Meet Gab.

Gab the Gardner.

Or as we like to call him, the hottest horticulturist on Instagram. (Sorry, Billy Reilich, you’ve been replaced.)

Gab is a scruffy, blue-eyed, buff-bodied French landscape architect from Paris with a passion for plants, animals, outdoor adventures and the Mediterranean flora. He’s also gay. Oh, and did we mention that he takes a great gym selfie?

How about we take this to the next level?

Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
