Italy
Went to Pisa to see a long distance friend of mine, i had already been there with my family when i was younger, i remember the main place (where the leaning tower is) was really busy with tourists and the bars near there were expensive, but if you stay for the night and go to the city center (10 min walk from the tower) you will find lots of shops, ice cream bars, etc. There are many many university students from all over italy and they usually all meet up in these bars. I felt safe with my friends both during the day and night, some creepy drunk men at very late night but just dont go near them… overall tho a very beautiful city!!
Posted: April 23, 2025Amzing trip! fell in love with city! definitely can see myself moving to Milan😍 Affordable, beautiful and not too big. Very safe as well. We were two girls and stayed 4 nights. It was enough time to see the city but I wished we stayed longer and I will definitely come back.
Posted: April 21, 2025Experienced: August, 2024i loved venice! it was one of the prettiest places i’ve been, every where i looked i just wanted to take a photo. i stayed on the mainland which i would definitely recommend because it drives down prices by A LOT! i would also say that going in winter enhanced my experience!
Posted: April 20, 2025I didnt feel much safe in Milan. I met some weird people on the streets. I wasn't in danger but it still affected me I think there is less to see there than in other Italian city, they deserve more attention Overall it was okay, not so expensive. I rented good apartment for affordable price comparing to Swiss and France
Posted: April 18, 2025Experienced: December, 2024Not a great place to go out after dark. Couldn't really enjoy all of the activities, because of the safety concerns. Food was good overall, mid tier for Italy level and the prices were HIGH. In the end I'll give 3/5 and would not visit more than once
Posted: April 17, 2025Experienced: August, 2024Beautiful city! Probably one of my favorite towns in Italy. I felt it was mostly safe during the day (I would say at night near the station and in some alleys it’s kind of the same everywhere in Italy, I would avoid them), especially during christmas time the atmosphere was so cozy and peaceful. The little Christmas markets were perfect, not overfilled like the ones in big cities, and the local food was amazing! I had polenta with some other dishes, and seriously I can’t get enough of Veneto cuisines😭🤍 Would definitely recommend! During the wintertime espwcial Christmas if you’re looking for a not too overcrowded, overpriced place with very comforting atmosphere and sweet people.

Sicily is a beautiful place with everything you can desire. Cities are cultural gems, nature is wild and ancient, the food is absolutely mouthwatering, and the people are as hearty as their pasta. You have Etna, the volcano, which means you can combine mountain hikes and natural wine tasting with beach days and aperitivo time.

I’ve traveled to Italy several times across various cities. Needless to say the food there is absolutely delicious, especially in Venice. The city is by far my favorite in Italy - not only because of the food but also feelings of safety, respectful locals and breathtaking views. Speaking of the latter, I enjoyed the amazing natural scenery in Lake Como. I also enjoyed Rome, Naples and Tuscany. I didn’t enjoy Milan and Florence as much because of the very dynamic nature of both cities. This is however a personal preference and experiences can vary for each individual. In terms of safety, both didn’t feel as safe as all the previously mentioned ones. Overall, Italy is a must for every travel girly.

I went to Italy with a few friends when we did a travel programm for students. We visited Florence, Pisa, Porto Venere and Lucca. It was an amazing time there, the food was great and even in October it was still warm enough to dip your feet into the water. I would recommend always watching your bag tho near tourist attractions.

You need to be aware of the surroundings. I usually don't walk alone during dark hours, but if i need to, i park my car close to the city centre and stay on the main roads, where other people are present.
Posted: April 23, 2025I lived in Naples for at least 5 years; if you're in the company of men, nothing should happen, but if you're with women, you need to be a little cautious when going out at night. During the day, it's not dangerous; you just need to be careful when going to more populated or otherwise famous areas, because of pickpockets who might put their hands in your jacket pockets or backpacks. I always recommend not being alone; if you're alone during the day, nothing happens, but in the evening, you have to be very careful.

I’m Anna, I was born in Milan (Italy) and lived here all my life. I was born in 2006 and in September 2025 I will be starting university in Utrecht (Netherlands). I love animals (I have 2 cats) and nature, I always enjoy netting new people and listen to their stories. The things I most enjoy talking about are literature and current events of the world, but really I can be interested in any deep conversation about any topic! I have also travelled all around the world on a sailing boat with my family, therefore I’be always felt really close to the sea, however, in recent years I’ve become even more fond of the mountains.

Carissa
Hi, I'm Carissa, I'm 32, and my pronouns are she/her. I love to travel and see less of the touristy things. Although I'm really big on history, architecture, learning how things are made, and food when it comes to travel. I have two cute Yorkies (hypoallergenic) at home that I love dearly, but I am allergic to animal dander. I tend to be on the quieter side, but I love getting to hear other people's stories and try to learn as much as I can wherever I go. I value meeting people, dancing, laughing, eating new things and enjoying magical moments that travel has to offer. I love talking about physical and mental health, food from both historical and socio-economic perspectives, cultural norms, and family systems. You could also find me talking about dance, movies, music, art and fashion. I love it all.

I’m a Canadian permanently residing in Brisbane, QLD. I love to travel and have a trip to Europe booked for April 2025-June 2025. I have been dreaming of this trip for a long, long time so I’m looking forward to getting to know locals and fully immersing myself. I’d like to say I have a laid back attitude and can be a bit on the quiet side. My interests include reading, listening to music, skiing, board games and thrift shopping. Pls feel free to get in touch I love getting to know people🙂
