I stayed with local woman who hosted me in her beautiful apartment for one night. It was amazing experience. First we had a coffee and little chat in one of the cute coffee places and then we went to her place to have a dinner and a bit of wine. After that she gave me her keys so I could come back whenever I wanted. I connected with one more french girl, so I went for a drink with her. I came back slightly after 22 and next day I left early to be able to discover the city. I went to Musée Fabre and enjoyed walking around the old part of the city. I found it fascinating. This city definitely has a charm. I stayed there just 2 days but I felt in love with the place, thanks to my host as well. She gave me many tips and I was happy to listen to her stories.

I think everything can happen everywhere so there is always something to be worried about. But between my life in Paris and in Montpellier, I can say that there is a difference. I never experienced anything here in Montpellier, I've been loving here for the past two years. As a woman you have to be careful everywhere anyway

It's okey as long as you are not to far from de center or in known area, and a advise not being alone after 22h. There sometime drunk people which can scare, but i never see them violant, there are principaly in the transport are in the night. However most of the people in the city are students so you can probably find someone to help neer you.
