The food was amazing, with a really cheap vegetarian Michelin restaurant and obviously scrumptious Italian food. The vibes were great, people were kind-However men were scary, I had a lot more dangerous situations than I've had my whole life in my country of origin. The culture (sightseeing and museums) was breathtaking however. Very tight budget wasn't exceeded- Overall I would do it again; I just wish men didn't exist sometimes lol
Posted: May 27, 2025Experienced: July, 2024Palermo was incredibly beautiful. A lively city next to the sea, good food and beautiful places around. The city strongly smells of fish and moisture! If that makes any sense! Also, not many people speak English. But they are warm and helpful if you try to communicate with them using Google translate. The city was not at all dangerous, but I'd still advise to be cautious.

I visited Turin in April for my dad’s birthday, beforehand I had asked here in local chat about places to see and restaurants to eat at and the recommendations were on point, we had an amazing time! We felt very safe, everyone was very nice.
Posted: May 25, 2025It was quite safe but there were people trying to stop you on the road to make you buy something and if you don't look ahead and walk away they kinda bother you. Other than that it's generally safe as long as you stay on the main roads, until midnight I as a solo traveller felt quite safe although most of the restaurants close by 9-10 so it's a bit too quiet and if you don't like it it may come off as eerie
Posted: May 25, 2025I loved the country the people are sooo friendly and the food was just excellent. I loved the nature and the lifestyle there! You can always find people to talk to and great restaurants. You’ll always feel safe in Italy

It is overall safe, nothing has ever happened to me, nor i am too afraid that it is going to. Robberies mostly happen in isolated/ or almost isolated houses in the outskirts. I think that this town is pretty safe.

Hi my name is Weronika and I'm from Poland. Art is my life and my major, I study it in Toruń, Poland, but currently I’m in Rome and I know nearly every corner of this Eternal City. I love it here, though I’m not sure if it’s my forever place. My dream is to stay in Italy, and Florence has a special place in my heart. One day I hope to live in a small house in Tuscany, surrounded by art, books, my two cats from Poland, and a cow named Kasia — because why not? I’m passionate about traveling, and if I could, I would skip sleep just to spend more time walking through museums. I love reading, especially sci-fi and fantasy books, but I also enjoy art books, particularly about Polish, Japanese or Italian art. I like to dive into philosophy from time to time too, ever since I took a course on aesthetics that really stuck with me. In my free time I enjoy crocheting when I have the patience, and I absolutely love solving logic puzzles. I’m definitely not the type to sit still for long when I’m outside, slow sightseeing isn’t really my thing, I tend to walk fast and rarely get tired. So if you're up for a long walk and good conversation, I’d be happy to keep you company!

Hi! I'm Alessia, I'm 22 years old and I'm from Como🫧 I'm an introverted girl but I'd love to make new friends! I love TV series, movies and formula 1. I love crêpes, and i am a big fan of Barcelona (in fact I hope to go back soon) I consider myself a quiet person with a great sense of humor, I love chatting for a long time, walking around the cities, going to have breakfast, and sometimes even going to do a few party nights I don't mind. I would like to make a real bond made of lots of laughter, travels and chat until late at night! I can't wait to meet new people🫶🏻 IG: @alesxhs
