Katowice, Solo travel
Overall, it was a very nice experience. I arrived very early in the morning, so it was still dark, but the city felt safe and calm. The streets were quiet and peaceful. I walked around until midday and people were kind, relaxed, and helpful. One person even stopped to chat with me, which made the experience feel very welcoming.

Wroclaw
Wrocław is generally considered very safe with very little violent crime happening day-to-day, but I’d still recommend exercising caution and avoiding dark areas. The historical centre and three Nadodrze district have a very large number of unstable individuals one should be aware of

Leszno
I think the only place in Leszno worth worrying about is the market square and its surroundings. However, there's not much crime anyway. Homeless people can be found at the train and bus stations, but they don't cause any major problems. It can be more dangerous at the speedway race in Leszno. Because of the fans

very safe place to travel, it is very convient if you are solo-travel. at night be carefoul with drunk people in old town but they are mostly harmless. crime rate is low, traffic rules are super important, you should obey them perfectly because fees are high
Posted: April 29, 2026Warsaw
Generally, it's okay, but there are often drunk people. Homeless people are a common sight in the city center, so I'd be careful at night. However, I've returned from the city center around 10 p.m. more than once, and it wasn't too bad.

About me
Hii!! I am Amelia (but I go by Keira). I am 18 years old. I am a dreamer with a backpack, a heart full of compassion, and a passport that's never dusty for long. I am currently doing my senior class at JDJ IOS American High School Online. I believe travel is less about ticking off destinations and more about building bridges - especially between hearts and ideas. I love volunteering abroad and have a deep passion for projects that make a difference. Whether it's helping animals, working with children, or participating in Erasmus+ exchanges, I seek out meaningful experiences that connect purpose with exploration. You will usually find me: - horse riding at golden hour - ice skating on ice rink - journaling in a park - taking care of kids - volunteering - or on another Erasmus+ youth exchange I adore deep conversations, spontaneous gateaways, souful music, and laughing until it hurts. I love slow travel, where I can feel the rhythm of a place and meet incredible women who inspire me - just like you. I’m looking to connect with fellow travel ladies for cultural exchanges, weekend escapes, shared volunteering projects, or just a coffee in a new city. I believe the best friendships are made under starry skies, on long train rides, or while getting lost in a new town together. Let's connect, if you are: 🌸 A solo traveler or expat 🧭 A purpose-driven adventurer 🎭 Someone who loves storytelling, activism or journaling 🏕 Into mindfulness, nature, or simply daydreaming by the sea 🐴 An animal lover (bonus if you want to help me build a rehab clinic for traumatized rescue animals someday!)

I love spontanious trips - the more obstacles - the better stories will my kids get, so I don’t mind any discomfort. I study psychology and my biggest passion is cinema and cycling, but I usually tend to spend my free time with my friends vibing, recalling stories form our childhood while having a beer or playing silly games. If I ever have the chance to be your guest - I would love to be able to return the favor and show you around Warsaw!
