I went on exchange during university and had an amazing time travelling around. I lived in Guadalajara, but visited many different places. Beautiful people and nature! Highly recommended to visit this country!

Playa de Carmen was beautiful, I’ve gone 4 times already and I always find new thing to do! I would recommend booking a place close to the 5th ave., it’s a street that has literally everything. Restaurants, bars, vendors, and the beach is about 3 to 4 blocks away.

Like all places, there are delicate areas, but the place where I live is quiet, safe, and monitored. It is a residential development with only one entrance in a quiet area in the Rolls of Pachuca de Soto.

This is a tourist destination with a very artistic vibe. I’ve felt safe here, though it’s always wise to take basic precautions. Most of the time, I highly recommend visiting downtown, it’s lively and always full of people

I feel safe to walk around any time of day being mindful and aware same as I would anyplace. The stress and sidewalks are uneven so be mindful of that to not fall. I walk often with friends along the main tourist avenues that are very brightly lit by shops and hanging lights. People are a friendly mix

About me
Hi!! I’m Dani, a Mexican traveler and architecture student. I speak Spanish, English, and French, and I’m learning Italian and German. I had the chance to live in France for a year as an exchange student. I love exploring new cultures through art, architecture, and food. I enjoy dancing, going out, meeting genuine people, and making the most out of life with good food and positive vibes. I’m currently traveling across Europe for summer vacation and would love to connect with other women travelers to share stories, tips, or just a nice walk through the city.
