Munich, Group travel
This was my first trip to Munich, and although it was a short one, I really enjoyed it. We mostly explored the beautiful old town, wandered through the city center, and took in the atmosphere. My favorite spot was definitely the Eisbach. It was the perfect place to cool off in the hot weather, even though the water was incredibly cold! I didn’t get to see everything this time, but it definitely made me want to come back and explore more.

Black Forest, Group travel
With a fellow travel lady, I went backpacking through the Black Forest. We walked a total of 160kms from Forbach to the Feldberg. We spent the nights either in trekking camps, in campsites or on farms. The landscapes were beautiful, we came across many lakes such as Herrenwiesensee, Titisee and Mathisleweiher (my favourite!). Overall, we felt very safe and met lots of lovely, mostly elderly people encouraging us to finish this eight day hike. If you like spending time outdoors, I highly...

Berlin, Solo travel
Perfect for people seeing something intense and special experience. Most attractive city in Germany absolutely but as a solo traveler, It would be better to take care yourself on nighttime especially.

I went to Bonn to visit a friend of mine and it was an amazing experience. The river was so nearby and with the train Cologne was only an hour. I also liked Koblenz and I recommend to everyone. Just go and explore

Berlin was fun. We didn’t get in to Berghain (lol) but we did our own tour of the city and the vibes were great. Public transportation is very easy and convenient. Very diverse food options. Great rave venues - I would love to go back and let loose again!

I visited Berlin at the beginning of April and it was so so nice! It is very easy to meet new people, the international setting allows you to meet people from all around the world. I really enjoyed going to a rave and I’m sure I’ll be coming back for more!!

Mittenwald, Solo travel
Mittenwald is a place out of dreams. At every bend in the road, you can see the Karwendel Mountains staring down at you, and I kept having this feeling of déjà vu, like I had seen this place somewhere before. Maybe it was in some childhood calendar or an old photograph where I was first mesmerized by the Alps. It felt like I was stepping into a memory I had carried for years without even realizing it. It was a very emotional trip. I ended up climbing Hoher Kranzberg, and as someone who isn’t...

Germany, Solo travel
Experienced a small village local life by staying with a friend, from February to April. Was told of the 'harshness/coldness' of German strangers, never encountered that, I was warmly welcomed and engaged with everywhere I went - both small towns and big cities. I will never look at my country‘s bread the same, we‘re doing something seriously wrong. Wish I could ship bulk laugen brotchen home. Scenery is stunning, sort of comforting landscape everywhere, and I didn’t even see Autumn. Love the...

The place is close to the border to Czech, so there are a few drug offences, but you don't have to be afraid for yourself, especially as a woman. There are no big groups of men who can spread fear and when they do, they chill all at their apartments and gamble on their PS4

I lived here my whole life and walked around alone at nights too - always safe. As in any city there are some weird and shady people but they are easy to avoid. Lmk if you want to know more or need a place to stay.

really safe student city. I never felt scared or unsafe walking around. the only issues you might encounter are at the areas of the main station and the bus terminal (zob), which are very monitored during the day but less at night, so I’d avoid those areas

Hamburg is very safe. As in every bigger city you have to be more carefull at night. Especially if you go out to Party on the famous Reeperbahn, it is best to go with friends and watch out for each other.
Posted: August 16, 2026Stade
Small-city-like safe but with the current political situation there are more tensions. Avoid the marked areas during night time, they're mostly safe during the day, and be careful if you're queer and/or a Person of Colour.

About me
Hi! I’m Ioana, originally from Romania and now living in Munich, Germany. 🌍 I’m curious, open-minded and always happy to discover new places, meet interesting people and try things I haven’t done before. I love nature, long walks, swimming, music, dancing, good food and meaningful conversations. I’m currently exploring more of the world and learning to enjoy travelling on my own, but I’d also love to meet other women to share adventures, explore a city, go for a hike, have a coffee/drink or simply spend a relaxed day together. 😊 I speak Romanian, English and German, so I’m always happy to connect with women from different backgrounds. I’m not looking for a perfect travel partner — just kind, genuine people with whom I can laugh, explore and create some nice memories. ❤️

I love to take a stroll in new cities and lost myself occasionally. I am a curious person who has a big appetite about almost everything in our world.
