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 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.

Munich is a very safe city; in the five years I’ve lived here, I’ve never had a bad experience, even when going out at night and walking home on my own. Whenever there are major events, there are always police around and they’re also quite relaxed.

Living in Ravensburg 📍 It’s a very safe city during the day, and even at night, you can walk around freely without much fear. Of course, you can never predict everything, but overall it’s a peaceful place to be. 🙌✨

I am feeling pretty safe, at night I try to avoid sketchy areas like Central Station or Münsterplatz. I don’t recommend staying in students doorms, there have been several assaults targeting women.

A relatively large number of homeless people around, some of whom are very pushy and begging. Many drug addicts who gather in the city all day. Regular riots - a lot of police presence.

You'll find me either at my desk pretending to do cool science while not having a clue, on a mat choking people or struggling not to get choked myself, in nature, reading a book or spending time with my loved ones.

About me
Hi, I’m Shree, 24, living in Hamburg, Germany. I work a full-time 9–5, but whenever I get the chance, I’m off exploring new places. I love budget-friendly travel, good food, beaches, hiking, and anything adventurous; from scuba diving to skydiving. I’m learning to travel solo while also sharing trips with my boyfriend. My goal is to inspire others to see that you don’t need a luxury lifestyle to create unforgettable memories. Join me as I explore Europe and beyond, one adventure at a time!
