A small, quiet town. Perfect for a break from the hustle and bustle of the big city and relaxation. There is a beautiful castle, which is currently a museum. There is a beautiful forest outside the city. There is beautiful architecture. In general, there is something to see. As for life, I can't recommend it if you're young, because there's nothing to do there, no work, no prospects for the future. This city is ideal for a quiet vacation or to meet your old age.
Posted: February 12, 2026Experienced: December, 2024I spend 7 weeks in Montpellier for a language course and it was so much fun! The city is beautiful and in my experience pretty safe (except for cat calling and some pickpockets). There are great daytrips possible to Marseille or Sête, which also are very pretty and popular. Or you can visit the Museums, beach or other attractions in Montpellier itself. As an 18 year old I partied a lot in the Clubs Panama (esp. the Latina floor/2nd floor) and Le Club. It’s definitely not cheap, but when has France ever been that…

La Rochelle is great because it blends intellect, creativity, and authenticity in a way few mid-sized cities manage. Nature is never far away, with trails, rivers, and forests minutes from downtown. The city is social and fun without being overwhelming, welcoming, evolving, and confident in exactly what it is.

Overall the city is very safe. But like every European cities, some places/neighborhoods aren’t great to visit at night alone. For example : Place Plum is fine during the day you can take a coffee alone. But a night I would recommend going with friends. But it’s a really nice place to party !

Apart from the few drunks it's pretty safe. I've never been bothered by anyone, my friends have had people try to flirt with them a bit but never anything to bothersome. Maybe avoid the center to avoid the bars
Posted: February 12, 2026Pretty safe during the day if you stay within the main city. Solo female travellers should avoid Saint-Denis (no, it‘s not a stereotype) and be cautious in the 10th and 20th arrondissement. At night, definitively watch out! Also, avoid placing your phone on tables in restaurants or using it openly in the metro - it‘s gonna get snatched out of your hands faster than you would believe.

Salut, Coucou, Hello, as you wish, I love them all ☺️ I'm Mathilde, Mathou for my close ones. I live in Bordeaux, where I work as a psychologist with people who live with disabilities. I love cinema (without "male gaze"), walking, taking photos, watching videos from politic specialists, activists, talking about my job, learning, watching asmr videos, speaking english, music, writing, singing, hearing people talking about their passions, swimming, playing tennis, make people laugh, postcards, magnets and coasters.... And roller coasters. I've got anxiety but I work on it, the few first minutes being inside a group of unknown people are difficult for me but I love it ! I'm vegetarian, which means I only eat grass. I don't have à perfect english but I would love to improve it with you, in Bordeaux (my beloved city) or anywhere else ! I can't wait to travel and meet people from other horizons ☺️ 👋

About me 🧐? I don't really know what to say, but what I can say is that my name is Clémence and I'm 19 years old. I live in Toulouse, "the Pink City" (by the way, one of the most beautiful cities in France 😁). I'm a second-year law student aiming to work as a diplomat, but it's not a sure thing; the studies will be long, and I like going out with my friends, so we'll see where it all leads 🤣🤣
