Santiago de Compostela

Beautiful and safe small city for solo travel. I walked here on the Camino from Ferrol so spent a few days relaxing and it's been lovely. Very walkable, lots of gorgeous architecture and green space. People are friendly and there's plenty to fill in your time with just wandering the streets or people watching in one of the parks.
