Paris was unforgettable! strolling along the Seine, admiring the Eiffel Tower, enjoying fresh air, and soaking up the city’s charm. Every corner felt magical. apart from a few events with people trying to scam and sell you products for much expensive prices, dont buy that

I feel safe walking around the city at night to my airbnb place. It’s always better to be attentive but nothing happened to me luckily and street is kinda empty. People are super nice, helpful, and willing to speak English! I had a good time there apart from the food poisoning from beef tartare😮💨

Full of people, there’s a half-hour line even to go to the bathroom. The churches are beautiful, especially the Saint Chapelle or San Denis. The metro is very easy to use. However, it’s extremely expensive— a bottle of water costs 6€.

I woke up just feeling so unsafe. I accidentally stayed in this neighborhood in 18th arr and was approached by several homeless men. At one point one guy distracted me while the other guy was digging in my backpack. I hated Paris. I will never go back.

Nantes is like any Other Big cities, pretty safe during the day, except sometimes around the station or in some small areas in the centre By night you should be careful around clubs, with uber/taxi drivers (check if it’s the car you were waiting for)

It is safe during the day. At night, I do walk in the city, but I would recommend to not talk to anyone. Nothing ever happened to me but i met some guys that were too insistant… also i think some ppl are interested into stealing stuff, so if you look like you re rich, pay attention if you re alone at night.

Nantes is a beautiful city where you can walk easily by day and night but make sure to stay in safe zone because some districts aren’t very safe by night. In Commerce, the city’s center, my advice is to stay in the Main Steet near to the tramway where there is always many people
