Solo travel

Grenoble was very nice. I got the chance to be hosted by a local for the weekend and she showed me around her favourite places. I loved the adventure of discovering a new city and especially through the eyes of someone who lives there and loves her city.

Always men to catcall and/or stare, avoid walking alone at night and avoid letting men talking to you randomly in the street (it is rarely for anything but harassment). There is a good app that's call The Sorority, allows you to warn other women in case of problems, they have your location and can come help you.

Pretty safe city if you avoid « ghetto » parts, the center and the surrounding like « saint Egreve » are really calm and have a beautiful views of the mountains. During winter its better to not stay late at night cause past 00h The streetlights are off.

I wouldn’t say my city is completely unsafe, but as a woman you do get a lot of lingering stares, random comments, and sometimes guys trying to talk to you or even insult you. Usually, it doesn’t go further than that, but you still need to be aware, there are rare cases of people trying to brush up against you in crowds. Best tip : avoid making eye contact in the street.
