I felt safe because a lot of people are open-minded, and in such a big city, you don't feel alone. The great thing is that there are all kinds of people. I really love going to Berlin Mitte in the spring and summer. It's such a great place for shopping for good clothes, eating yummy food, and the vibe is refreshing and nice.

I love Berlin! I felt safe and sound. Night life was amazing, the hostel and hosts were great. Tresor techno club was very tourist friendly. 22 euro for 8 h of dance. Food was great! I will definitely visit again 😊

I love Berlin. It's my favorite city. There are museums and thrift stores everywhere. The atmosphere of the biergaten is super cool. I went there with my family, as a couple and solo, and each time, it was a great experience.

When I was in Berlin I felt safe, I meet so many good people who became my friends... It is really a big city so if don't have a bike , you will have to pay an average amount for public transport. It is a strange and astonishing city, don't miss it !
Posted: August 25, 2024Berlin has beautiful parks and outdoor pools. I have also experienced the Balinese inspired sauna Vabali which was amazing. Biking in the parks when it’s dark felt unsafe, lots of drug dealers. Overall, the city is a mix of trashy charming places. It isn’t very well maintained nor cleaned, lots of trash on the ground.
Posted: August 20, 2024I stayed in the Sunflower Hostel very close to many clubs including Berghain. I felt safe in the dorm situation, despite the staff being disorganized and the lodgings not the cleanest. Walking around at night there were a surprising amount of catcallers, but no men that were specifically aggressive to me or my friends. The city isn’t the best lit, there are many dark streets. I felt safest walking around with others at night! That being said, people stay out clubbing until like 8 a.m., so there’s always people outside; it’s not desolate at night. A really great city for exploring queer culture with clubs, art, music. I really enjoyed exploring many cinemas. You can really eat cheap if you stick to little cafes and kiosks, but most everything is cash only, so I recommend bringing paper currency to an exchange because atms tend to have terrible exchange rates.

I feel save in Berlin I was visiting mostly museums and art galleries. Food in Berlin is delicious and people from all over the world are just fantastic. There are many parks and you can use the bike everywhere
Posted: August 5, 2024Experienced: June, 2024I was in Berlin for a project. I really like the Berlin big city and young energy. The cafe what do you fancy love is very good. I recommend visiting the opera house for music and visiting museum for some art. Definitely try berlin kebap, they taste goos and visit some cafe for relaxing afternoon chat with friends.
Posted: August 1, 2024We stayed at friends, which financially helps us a lot, the public transport is not that cheap as well as eating out, but on the other hand you can find really good streetfood. I feel quite safe, but I think it is as every bigger city, more dangerous – people in the streets might be addicted, which can cause some bad situations … but I do not have any
Posted: July 31, 2024I attended the pride parade in Berlin with tree other female solo travelers. It was so much fun! The whole city turned into a party playground for the whole day. Love the vibes here. Also highly recommend travelers to check out Holzmarkt and Yaam when you’re in Berlin. There are art villages built by the local communities.

There are some safe areas in Berlin, but also areas you should not go alone if you’re a woman. I live in Weißensee and feel very safe most times, also when it’s dark and late. You can use public transport. But at night you shouldn’t go alone to some areas. Then you should go by Uber or taxi.
Posted: December 9, 2024I would say it’s pretty safe in the common areas, just some area you should avoid in the night of course just to be safe. no görli at night, some lonely streets in neukölln too but overall i think you don’t need to worry about. i feel saver here than in my little home town

I am a happy little girl in an old body ;-)... no , joking. I love travelling, but also being in my cosy apartment. I love singing and dancing, but also reading books and hiking. I am a logical thinking technical engineer, but also a dreamer. So, what should i say... just try to connect ;-)) if I have got time maybe we see us and I can host you.

I love traveling and getting to know other people and cultures. 😍 I live in Berlin, I have a small apartment, but I think I can cost another person if you are easygoing :)

Hey You! Im 34 years old, queer and mother of an adult human 🥹 (he is 20 now). So I think that might say a lot about me. Kidding: I’m a person that loves connection. I have grown my son, I have a lot of sisters and I’m part of a big choir. I don’t have a lot of friends but the hand full of them are based on growing together, learning, enjoying, be part of each others lives. It’s a great feeling to create something together. I’m a relationship kind of person (not only in a romantic way). Friendship/Relationships means a lot to me. I value the small things - time, rainy days in the summer, kindness, a good song, unreasonable things…

I'm a masters student at Charitè, Berlin! I enjoy travelling and I'm trying to explore more and also the possibility of travelling solo. I just want to save a bit of money by couch surfing! Thanks.

Hey I'm Sophie from Melbourne, traveling in to Berlin, Germany from 14 December to 18th December. I love exploring solo, trying the local foods, sightseeing and experiencing all the nightlife has to offer! Looking for other fun easy-going ladies in Berlin at this time who would be keen to explore Berlin's famous nightlife, hopefully Berghain, Sisyphos or Tresor, or other electronic music venues. At home I'm usually found hanging upside down from a silk (aerial) or pet sitting with my miniature dachshund! If this sounds like your vibe, let's connect ☺️ I'll be there for the Xmas markets too and I welcome any recommendations or suggestions thanks

I am 22 years old and I come from Heraklion, Crete. I am trying to figure out what I would like to do while also enjoying travel and meeting new people. At this moment in my life I am volunteering around the world with worldpackers 😊 I love reading books, traveling and being in the sea! I also love spending time with animals, and have volunteered at many animal shelters. I am a vegan and love to experience all the vegan food every city has to offer! I love adventure and nature😀
