Sometimes bad things do happen. And it depends which area you live in. In case of someone breaking in I think it's pretty common like the rest of other countries. Bikes do get stolen a lot but I do feel safe in this city.

Very friendly and cozy town with more bad apples than expected A lot of gunshots and explosive sounds around town but never heard of someone getting hurt. I've never been in a negative situation there personally

About Me

Hi, I am Eliza I’m 21 and I have the plan to travel this upcoming half year. I will do most of this alone but would really like meeting as much new people and cultures. I want to go to the nog so famous places and really enjoy the culture of that country. On my planning is that I will start in Austria then go to Italy then Greece and final destination Croatia. I want to do this on a very small budget and will probably interrail the most.
