Germany, Solo travel

I went to Bonn to visit a friend of mine and it was an amazing experience. The river was so nearby and with the train Cologne was only an hour. I also liked Koblenz and I recommend to everyone. Just go and explore

Berlin, Group travel

Berlin was fun. We didn’t get in to Berghain (lol) but we did our own tour of the city and the vibes were great. Public transportation is very easy and convenient. Very diverse food options. Great rave venues - I would love to go back and let loose again!

I visited Berlin at the beginning of April and it was so so nice! It is very easy to meet new people, the international setting allows you to meet people from all around the world. I really enjoyed going to a rave and I’m sure I’ll be coming back for more!!

Lübben - Lubin

Generally speaking, Lübben is a very safe place. It is a small, quiet resort town with a population of around 14,000, and like most of the rural Spreewald region, violent crime is incredibly rare. You can comfortably walk around at night, hike the trails, and explore the waterways without feeling on edge But beware the Moskitos when entering forests.

Esslingen am Neckar

Esslingen is very safe, especially during daytime, lots of children playing outside. The only thing I would avoid at night is the main station and the area around it but other than that its pretty nice

Kassel

Kassel is usually a safe city. However, you can feel a bit nervous in some public areas late at night due to drug and alcohol use and the lack of street lights. In conclusion, serious safety problems are not the case.

Ravensburg

Ravensburg is a very safe city. Be a little bit more cautious at night in the area of the train station if you are on your own. Don‘t give your phone away to strangers in that area, it is possible that it will be stolen.

About me

Hii! 💗✨ I'm Alina, 21 years old, and currently living in Augsburg with my boyfriend. I'm studying Social Sciences there. In my free time, I love staying active. I've been doing strength training for a few years now and regularly go to the gym. Over the last two years, I've also discovered cycling for myself 🚴‍♀️, and in winter, I love hitting the slopes and going skiing 🎿. I recently also got into running🏃🏻‍♀️ One thing about me: I tend to get hyperfixated on new hobbies 😅. Over the years, I've tried so many different things: sewing🧵, making jewelry✨, painting🎨, clay pottery🏺, knitting🧶, and probably a lot more. I even got back into playing the piano after almost ten years. I also love spending time with my friends. Whether it's going out for drinks, partying🪩, or just having a cozy night together. I absolutely love traveling ✈️🌍. My biggest dream is to have visited every country in the world one day.
