I traveled during King’s day, which js supposed to be a day for partying and super good vibes. However, I felt like people were extremely rude towards foreigners. They would call me names, stare down at me and the people I had befriended on my hostel. Genuinely, hated the whole experience. Left earlier than expected. It worries me that some nations are becoming very intolerant towards other cultures and visitors.
Posted: September 12, 2025Not only in Giethoorn but in Netherlands I feel the most safe and happy. Giethoorn is like a fairy talee I was in love! We took a boot tour for an hour and i felt sad for leaving there. definitely a must go and must see place 🥹🤍🤍
Posted: August 24, 2025Experienced: June, 2025i felt pretty safe overall during the day, never had any weird experiences. the only time i felt unsafe was of course in the evening while i was out and about with friends i met at the hostel. a lot of men were creepy, stared and said weird things. i found the city as a whole wonderful, i fell in love with amsterdam. the way the city is set up with the houses and canals feels so nice and i like that you can practically bike everywhere. there‘s a lot of diversity with cafés, restaurants (of different cultures), thrift shops, clubs, & activities !

I spent two weeks in Eindhoven for my first solo trip and I just loved it so much!! It’s super safe, beautiful architecture, so many animals, it’s so clean!!!! The people are really welcoming, it’s super calm but there are activities (went to a car exhibition in the center), really nice bars, it’s so nice to be able to bike everywhere! Also everything is closed (went to Amsterdam in 2h by bus)

You need to look out for your bike being stolen or being sexually harassed but other than that I don’t have any experiences where I was robbed. One time i was partly followed home and yelled at by a drunk person but other than that no.
