Copenhagen, Solo travel

I’m living just outside Copenhagen, and yesterday I randomly decided to do a one-day solo trip into the city… best decision honestly 🫶 I started at the Royal Library, walked through the garden behind it, then made my way along Strøget (literally my favorite part cuz all the cute shops?? I was obsessed), passed by Kongens Nytorv, Nyhavn, and ended up chilling by the Opera House. For coming back to the metro I hopped on one of the water buses, the same station in front of the Opera House, which...

Copenhagen is a City you fall in Love with in the Summer. Definitely walkable & I rarely took the metro/train. Only to further out areas :) And it's super safe here, very very safe. I never felt uncomfortable to walk at night. Butgenerally I take an Uber anyway to go home when it's late.

Copenhagen, Family travel

Heyy lovelies🫶🏼 I was in CPH for 5 days over my birthday and it was very enjoyable. The sights were very nice, it’s a great place for a city trip even with family. If you’re looking to do lots of sights and museum tour, you should book the Copenhagen card. You pay a fixed price and can get into many sights for free. But there’s a calculator for that to see if it makes sense for you. Very recommended my me and my fam🫶🏼

Copenhagen, Family travel

Went there with my family and we had an absolute blast! I definitely recommend renting a bicycle for a day (we used Donkey Republic which is very popular throughout the coty & you can do everything in an app) and visiting Superkilen park as well as riding across Cirkelbroen, Cykelslangen and other bridges on bike. I promise they are a lot of fun to bike even if you normally don't enjoy riding a bicycle very much (like me and my family)! Plus you can also reach further away places you want to...

Amazingly safe place for women! You can bike home from the dance floor in the middle of the night and feel safe 🌟 Catcalling and harassment is very uncommon. All of Denmark, it’s very safe to be a female solo traveler

Copenhagen

One of the safest cities in the world. No danger of thieves. Catcalling might be a problem in the nightlife, just always remember never be alone incase something happens. Daytime is safe just about everywhere. There are sketchy alleys but they are no where around the usual touristy areas so nothing to be afraid of. If you bike just make sure to know the rules, or it might be scary.

This town is the safest you can ever imagine. Literally everyone minds their own business, and since it's a small city everyone is so amazing with others and they try to help each other if they notice something's wrong. I usually come back home after sunset and I walk my way home from the bus stop, I've never faced any problems anytime.

No issues walking there at night. I've lived there my whole life and rarely experienced anything while walking home at night. It's a city like any other, so you can be unlucky enough to bump into an asshole or predator, but it isn't a super common occurance

Hi! 26 year old girlie from Copenhagen, Denmark. I work for an airline and travel as much as I can - solo! Extroverted, smiling and loves to talk. I’d love to get some local eyes on different places around the world and meet new friends. Invite me to any kind of hangout and I’m likely down 🫶 I’d love to host too (I live in a studio apartment though haha) ❌ I don’t smoke. I don’t do drugs ❌ (I also don’t drink, but am totally fine with others drinking and I love to party 💃 ) I have no pets - but love pets (especially dogs, guinea pigs and rabbits)

I'm a 20 year-old psychology student, doing Erasmus in Denmark and looking to travel around Europe. I do not put any rules on my travels because "You only live once" and I feel like it's worth the risk if the experience has a potential to be memorable and enjoyable.

Hi everyone, thanks for stopping by. I'm excited to meet new people and learn about new cultures. I'm always available for a quick chat or to explore around town. I love concerts, discovering new restaurants, and good comedy nights. My birthday is in June. I still haven't decided what to do this year. Any suggestions? I would love to hear them! 🥰 I'm traveling this year to Germany (Berlin), Norway (Oslo), France (Paris), and other places. I would love to connect with people from these places.

Hi there, I’m a 27 year old mom to a 1 year old all pro the girlies! I just learned about this app and I’m loving it!! I don’t travel much at the moment but if one of you ladies need a safe space to stay at visiting Denmark, feel free to text me! I have a safe place to sleep, shower, eat, relax, whatever you wanna do. If I have the time or am able to take the time, I’ll take you for a trip to the capitol too (which is only 30 mins by train from here). I’ll show you all the fun stuff and the tourist need to see. But I also know Copenhagen well enough to know the hidden gems. I’m fluent in Danish and English and learning Portuguese/spanish so I know maybe 10% of that.. Portuguese is the Brazilian version for me (Because apparently Duolingo think it’s the same) but my boyfriend is fluent in Portuguese from Portugal and teaching our daughter.
