A super great experience ! I spent 3 days here with my best friend and we didn't have any problem. The city is beautiful and there are many things to do. People we met were funny and cool. Even at night we feeled safe.

Budapest, Solo travel
My last trip was to Budapest, Hungary, a self-gify for my birthday and I went solo (as usual). Be aware to plan your visits since there's plenty of things to see, BUT only in your mind! Buy tickets when you are on site (apart from the Parliament, book that in advance and PRINT the ticket!), because with the Budapest Card a lot of attractions, restaurants and experiences are free or discounted! Public transport included (100% for free). Speaking of which, it was VERY easy to use and well connected, either Google Maps or the app BudapestGo make moving around town a piece of cake. For the money,...

Budapest is a beautiful city, very safe if you are in a group of girls, alone I don't know. It's a fun city that always offers something different and culturally spectacular. I've met new people who have given me lots of advice on the right and uncommon places to visit. There are many Italians ready to give you their opinion :)

It’s pretty chill. I don’t really have a night life, but I’ve walked home alone at 3am in Blaha. A lot of people say Blaha and Keleti aren’t the best places to visit, but it’s not that bad in my opinion

A little safe village. Nothing to be scared about here. Not the nicest people live here but they can be nice if they want lol. Actually not many people speak english so thats a negative thing, but they are helpful in need

There are a lot of druggies and aggressive homeless around Népliget. Avoid tram 1 and also be careful around Keleti train station. Some gypsies sell stuff (mostly Vapes) around Deak Ferenc square as well, be careful with them

About me
I’m Melinda, a 32 y/o phd student (in law), and assistant professor (in health sociology) from Hungary, University of Szeged; but I’m a crazy, three hugging redhead too. I’m a pianist, and sociologyst at the same time. I love making new friends, talking about the univers, the meaning of life, listening music together, and talking about our impressions, and looking for figures in the clouds. I’m also a big foodie, and open to try all kinds of food and new experiences, but i’m vegan (also for healt reasons). I prefer the non-touristy stuffs.
