I can walk alone in the dark in a dress without getting cat called at least 90% of the time, so I feel quite safe. Most people are young and very nice and help when something is up. So I think you can say it's quite safe to travel alone

You can walk on the streets any time of the day/night. Go on walks, hikes... The city is small but well active thanks to a large student community and a big university campus. The train station is also safe as it resides in the center of the town and police is always there.

Göttingen is a small cute city in the middle of Germany. It's very safe, but the busses in the evening are not driving that often. There is many police in evening in Göttingen, so it's very safe. But you should not ride your bicycle without light or, when you are drunk.

About me
My name is Samia, I am 25. I am starting my solo travelling journey 🧳 I have been to many places within Germany and Holland, mostly weekend getaways/public holidays. I currently call Germany 🇩🇪 home. I would like to widen my horizon in 2026 and go farther than home. A bit to the north, but I am open to going everywhere and anywhere. I enjoy chatting and meeting new people from Allover the world 🌞 I am open to hosting one guest at a time (pets are welcome also). My Small city is at the intersection of several trains that go from the North to the south of Germany, whether u wanna go to Berlin, Hamburg, Munich or Frankfurt, Göttingen offers a great stopover.
