Turku is a safe city compared to many cities outside of finland, but as a finn, turku is quite unsafe compared to other finnish cities. You should never leave your belongins behind or get too drunk. Also, city centre is not very safe at nights and id recommend to explore the city during the day and spend nights indoors.

Turku is one of the biggest cities in Finland, but still very safe. The city is cozy and I feel safe here. In Finland you can move outside at any time, of course it's always good to be sure that someone knows where you are and check on your friends, but here I think you can be very peaceful in here.

Turku (Finland in general) has it's occational basic bar fights in the city center, but it is safe to go almost anywhere, at any time of the hour. People do look out for each other. We are known for minding our own business, an that us a blessing and a curse in a away. Meaning that, we might seem a bit stood off to foreigners, but that also means less crime etc. Because we keep to ourselves most of the time :)

If you leave your bike unlocked, there's still a good chance it will be there when you come back for it, although I'd strongly recommend locking the bike, especially in the city centre.

I'm easily excited adventurer who loves to experience new things, enjoy the nature and dive into deep talks and different cultures π I'm following my free spirit and travelling around at this moment of my life, following intuition instead of planning a lot ahead β¨ I'd love to connect with new people and be inspired together π I'm currently in Spain (Conil de la Frontera), planning to visit Malaga (probably 17 or 18th of July). In the evening of 19th of July I'll fly to Finland for a short time (maybe few weeks) and after that I'm off to adventure again π
