Munich is a beautiful city and felt so good and warm (spiritually and physically) I stayed two nights in a hotel very close to the train station which made transportation so much easier from the airport and to other cities. City central is really pretty with parks. I definitely recommend having picnics with coffee and pastries or takeout food in close parks. I went to popular landmarks because it was my first time so there is a lot I had missed out on but I can recommend Allianz Stadium and BMW...

That is the first time I was in foreign country alone. My hotel was near by the main train station. When I went out from the hotel. There was someone follow behind me. So be careful and be safe if you are alone.

LOVED IT!!! Highly recommend!!! I went to Munich to visit a friend and it’s still one of my top 10 experiences. The city is pretty safe, I never felt unsafe once even walking at night. 10/10 recommend the eisbach if you get a chance! The museums and buildings were incredible I have so many photos!!! The most expensive thing for me was the plane ticket, I didn’t pay for housing or anything like that bc I stayed with a friend so the trip for me was pretty cheap. Honestly even the museums and all...

Overall I feel like munich is a pretty safe city if we’re talking about big cities. I don’t worry about walking alone most of the time, only ever if it’s night and near a big train station. The city center is actually pretty safe as well as most districts. Around Laim and Hasenbergl I‘d be a bit cautious.

Munich is a very safe city, you can definitely travel and use public transport also at night on your own in my opinion. But as like other big cities there are places and situations that are not that nice so maybe avoid them or don't go there on your own. E.g. Sendlinger Tor, central station - important public Transport areas and in general safe but also places for strange gatherings, maybe just change metro and go on ;) Old botanical garden was 'a crime Hotspot' if you can call it that, but...

About me
Hi, I am Miriam What should I say? Haven't described myself in a long time :) I try... I like nature although I live in the city. Especially lakes and woods. Doing music with other people is really a great way to communicate without words. I am dancing Forró. It's a brazilian dance. Therefore I often go to festivals in different places. Other from that I do different sports, like meeting people especially in nice places. Because often then there are also nice and open people 🙃 Sometimes I need time for myself. Then I watch series or I go for a hike. Or I try to read more. Which works sometimes better, sometimes less good 😊 So, that's it for the start.

About me
Im Noa and im 20 years old, i love to travel any chance i get and love to connect to people and save money(trying to get around as cheap as possible). I would be happy to meet up with people and show them around, maybe even host someone, and im definitely interested in being hosted. Went to Romania to see my girlfriend for the first time (we used to be long distance and now live together) in a 40 hour bus/train ride which was annoying and exciting. I love food and im current doing an Apprenticeship as a Chef (3rd year). I love nature and animals. Im also interesting in homesteading and being self sufficient, and id really love to act out those things when im older and more capable.
