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 loveddd loved loved Berlin this is definitely a perfect place to live in. I could find everything I've wanted. Also literally everyone I've interacted with was so sweet and helpful. There were such good shopping places and the food we tried was delicious.

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!!

Berlin
Berlin is generally quite safe, especially during the day. I would say the “unsafest” areas are Warschauer Straße and Kottbusser Tor as they get quite busy during the night and weekends. You might come across some crazy people on the streets or the S-/U-Bahn but they usually don’t mess with you, just try ignoring them.

Generally pretty safe area. Main station and surrounding areas are always pretty sketchy. Eisenbahnstraße is also not necessarily the place to be. Other than that as long as you’re in the center of the city it should be good.

I actually feel very safe in Hanover, but I also have to admit that I grew up in what many people would probably consider one of the rougher or less safe parts of the city. My neighbors were sex workers and drug addicts, so being around people like that was normal for me. I think that mainly taught me how to interact with all kinds of people and showed me that peaceful coexistence is possible, which is why I’m not particularly afraid in those situations. That said, I can understand why people...

About me
My name is Anna and I'm 19. I just finished school and am now traveling for a bit before starting the next big chapter of my life. I already spent nine months in Ireland during my time in school and I fell in love with the country and its people. I'm vegan and I really love animals, so I do whatever I can to protect them. I have a dog (Paula) and love to play and cuddle with her. I also keep lots of plants in my house :)

About me
Hi, I am Antonia, (20y) and come from Germany. I lived in Sweden most of my childhood, but moved back to Rostock for my work at the Check-In for Stena Line (the ferry company). I love to travel, explore new places, cultures and Food. I was in Portugal 2024 as a part of my school though Erasmus+ and there really found my passion for exploring new countries. I am always looking for travel buddies or people who'd love to show me around their city a little.
