Germany, Group travel
I went to Germany on a school trip. We had a collaboration with a german school, and it was really interesting. We lived in Schwetzingen, went to the John Deere factory and did some shopping in Mannheim, as well as explored/shopped and went to the Kulturbraueri in Heidelberg.

Hamburg, Group travel
This year i traveled to hamburg with my whole class🙏 Def one of the beat experiences i‘ve had. it was so much fun and we saw a bunch if stuff (especially in the redlight district) Our original stay was weißenhäuser strand, which was an incredible cool „town“ idk if you can call it that. We drank too much one night and the security came knocking on our door (i was asleep) I would definitely do it again especially in a large group. Looking forward to visiting hamburg again (this year maybe...

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...

Munich
In general, I will definitely travel to this city as a girl and since I live here five years, my point of view would be looks like: I feel safe, but I wouldn’t go to the main station and old botanical garden ( some people there used to do drugs ) in the late night. But overall, it’s quite nice to travel. Lots of beautiful places to discover. Many friendly people and lots of them speak English. If you have any questions, just message me in private and you will get my feedback

Tubingen
Tübingen is a student city so it's pretty safe at night. On the weekends there are a lot of people in the streets and in the clubs there is a lot of security (unless indicated otherwise in a review of a specific club). People here are really aware of women's safety and looking out for each other. If you are feeling unsafe and reaching out to a random person on the street for help, they will probably help you

Leipzig
I have lived in Leipzig for over two years and I have always felt very safe. The people and culture provide an open and caring atmosphere and that is what makes me feel safe most of the time. As a woman, I have been catcalled and felt uncomfortable, especially at night, but I never felt directly threatened in my safety.
Posted: September 4, 2026Hamburg
Hamburg is a pretty safe city, but I would advise to be mindful of the party/red light district (Reeperbahn, Sternschanze, St Pauli) as there's more drunk party goers who might get a bit rowdy. The central train station (Hauptbahnhof) has a lot of homeless people and occasionally drug addicts, so I would advise caution and awareness if arriving there in the evening/nighttime.
Posted: September 4, 2026Berlin
Is mainly safe, but try to avoid Kreuzberg and Neukölln areas if you are alone at night and you don’t know the area. Always an eye on who is behind you during late night hours. During the day I always have feel safe just watch out of your bags in the public touristic spaces and public transport

Bohdana
Zeitz
Usually there are no people there in the evening/night. It is becoming more scary if there is someone. There have been incidents where people were almost attacked or robbed. The area around Zeitz Rathaus can feel especially unsafe at night, as it is often very empty and poorly lit. I would not feel comfortable walking there alone after dark.

About me
I am an international student in Marburg,Germany. When I have time, I like to explore new sights, usually on weekends because weekdays I'm at Uni and then in library busy studying. I'm an ambivert so I tend to be really chatty at the right time with right companions. I like reading Sci-fi novels. My hobbies are drawing, claying, puzzling and most of the time reading. 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. Like to meet new people and learn their perspective about different things.

all about meaningful connections, spontaneous adventures, and creating a safe, warm space wherever i go ✨ easygoing, respectful, and bringing good energy (and probably snacks). i enjoy deep talks just as much as random adventures and silly moments, and i’m always curious about different cultures, lifestyles, perspectives – and a little bit of magic in everyday life. find me at concerts or dancing at raves one day, and the next wandering through cafés, people watching or recharging in nature. for me, this is not just about a place to stay – it’s about exchanging experiences, building trust, and maybe even finding new friends around the world 💜
