ELSKA’S YEAR AHEAD (AND ON GETTING CHEAP FLIGHTS)… WITH A FEW STREET LADS FROM SANTA TERESA, RIO

| By the way, he also found an amazing deal to Rio de Janeiro (where this picture was taken during one of my flight attendant layovers). Unfortunately the tickets were gone before I could book… but in the meantime, Brazil is featured in our Elska Dehors section of Issue (03) with a photoseries by Rio based photoartist Lauro Justino. |
Although the Elska year starts in September – that’s when Issue (01) Lviv came out – the new calendar year gets me thinking about the future and what’s in store for Elska.
Issue (03) Reykjavík just came out a few days ago and I can say that Issue (04) will be set in a rather warmer, more Mediterranean sort of place. For those of you who follow us on Twitter (@elska_magazine) and Instagram (elskamagazine), you’ll find out the location of Issue (04) in just a few weeks when we fly out there to start shooting.
As for Issue (05), the tickets are also booked and all I’ll reveal now is that it’s somewhere in Asia. In fact, the decision to choose that place was very spur of the moment. My friend Matt, who helped choose the location of Issue (01) and even went along with me for that first shoot week, also helped lead me to Issue (05)’s destination.
Matt is a travel nerd (like myself) and he’s very up on following sites such as the Polish deal-finder fly4free.pl. Such sites publish details of how to get insanely cheap flights. Sometimes they’re legitimate airline deals and other times they are so cheap that it seems more like some sort of accounting department mistake! In any case, my flight to Asia for the fifth issue is the result of him finding flights that cost me even less than my short hop to Reykjavík cost.
I’ve always wanted to go beyond Europe for Elska but just can’t afford it yet. Of course I hope that Elska’s readership continues to grow so I can expense a sweet flight to Tahiti for a future issue, but for now I’ll rely on Matt to send the deals my way. Incidentally he also found me a ridiculously cheap deal that will set the location for Issue (07).

Two Men Found Love During War In The Documentary “Out Of Iraq”
How far would you go to be with the love of your life?
From: NewNowNext
From: NewNowNext
Logo continued its slate of inspiring and emotional documentaries with a forbidden love story between two Iraqi men, a soldier and a translator for U.S. soldiers in Out of Iraq.
The doc tells the true story of Nayyef Hrebid and Btoo Allami, two enlisted men who fall in love before they are forced to leave the country when Btoo becomes the target of an honor killing. Nayyef, the translator obtains a visa and moves to the U.S., leaving Btoo behind, but both are determined to reunite one day where they are able to love without fear.
“To be gay in Iraq, it’s very dangerous,” Hrebid told KUOW in Seattle. “It’s losing your life. You get shame to the family. You lose your family, and you lose your friends, you lose everything almost. That is why there is other ways to be gay, just between you and maybe the other person.”
The film is produced by World of Wonder and co-directed by Chris McKim and Eva Orner, who won an Oscar for the 2007 documentary Taxi to the Dark Side.

Tituss Burgess Dragged A Moving Company On Yelp: “You Fucked With The Wrong Queen”
#lizaminnelli

From: NewNowNext
Your favorite Pinot Noir-drinking roommate, Tituss Burgess was reading a moving company for filth on Yelp for their highly unprofessional manner.
After a heated text exchange with Franks Express, Burgess did post a review-but probably not the kind the company was hoping for:
He tweeted to his 49,000 Twitter followers the heated text exchange where the movers called him a “faggot”:
And then he warned Twitter of the fury he was about to unleash:

Burgess didn’t stop there. He also posted a video to Instagram reliving the whole ordeal and telling the moving company that they have “fucked with the wrong queen.”
Yes they have.
