on NYE i was at Vienna, that was amazing! Although the cold, soooo much people are visiting Vienna too. I went with my (ex)boyfriend and had so much fun. We both like photography, i took adorable pictures but i cannot share because of file size :,)

Stopped here for two days on a longer solo train trip through Eastern Europe and had an amazing time! Loved (and highly recommend) the cafe culture. Bring a book and relax. There’s no pressure to leave. Actually getting my server to bring my check so I could pay and leave was challenging lol Wonderful people with an easy to navigate metro system. Go to a classical concert and ride the world’s oldest Ferris wheel!

It was fun. We saw museums and zoo and we were walking around, but it was quite expensive. It was on September so it was a little cold. The landscape was beautiful and worth to see. A lot of people are around.

I never had any bad experiences, just once in the train, but i wouldn‘t go in areas where not many people are at night, many people say the 10th district especially Reumannplatz is not safe at night..
Posted: March 24, 2026Vienna is very safe during the day, no need to worry. Please be careful if you’re alone in the night, no matter where you are!!! I would suggest not going clubbing alone unless you’re in and out of a taxi.
Posted: March 19, 2026Vienna is quite safe, but you still need to take safety precautions. Districts 10 and 21 are not very safe. In District 1 (the center), it is best to keep an eye on your pockets. In clubs, keep an eye on your drinks.

About me
Hey everyone! I'm Sophia, living in Vienna and always up for good chats, random adventures, and coffee that turns into plans. My first solo trip was in 2017 — five months across Oceania and Asia. I came back with sand in my backpack, a mild addiction to rice dishes, and an even stronger addiction to exploring new places. 🌍 I love nature, city walks, and laughing at my own bad sense of direction. I’m that clumsy person who somehow stumbles over her own feet, but also into the best spots and events. ☀ Always up for meeting new people from all over the world, trying new restaurants, learning about different cultures and sharing laughs and stories. 💚

About me
Hey there, I'm Dari, 25 y.o., born in Siberia, and Austria is my Number 7 country of residence which cost me my mental health but also gave me lots of awesome memories! I lost myself many times, but at the same time I saw beautiful places, met amazing people, and lived through all the ups and downs of being a newcomer. More than 7 years ago I started solo travelling, and found out that there are so many people thriving to see the world just like me! This is truly inspiring! I love travelling more than anything else, but also trying to reduce the carbon trace by not going anywhere out of my institute except vacation destinations. I also try to cycle, walk and hike as much as possible, love every single step I make on my own! 🌱 Studies and research take the most of my daily life which I truly enjoy and adore, thus it leads me to some random passions instead of long-term hobbies. Hiking and cycling are must in my life, but I also like watching fashion shows and tennis, which I do occasionally. I love making videos about my trips, draw and write poems, but I never get time for anything so I ended up with laundry and groceries being my only permanent hobbies. I also really love trying new things, this year was lucky to play golf and paint with oil for the first time and hopefully will get to paragliding or surfing in the nearest future! I never stop setting new goals and challenge myself, I believe life goes fast so take it all while you can!

About me
Hi I’m Cris from Austria. I’m currently on a health journey, staying active, and keeping things simple and focused – but travel is my way to reset, get inspired, and meet people who bring fresh energy. I’m down-to-earth, clean, independent, and appreciate honest conversations. I don’t need much – just good vibes, mutual respect, and maybe a walk through the city or along the coast. I’m happy to share space, stories, or just enjoy quiet company whatever feels natural.
