It is calm enough here, you can walk with a phone or other valuable things during the day. However, it is better not to leave them unattended.

About me

Hi! I’m NastyađŸ„° I do like traveling! But my passion for travel grew after a trip to South America. In March, I flew to visit a friend in Argentina and decided to also see Peru and Chile. It was unforgettable! Meet new people, practice spoken language, thanks to the trip! I learn Chinese and Spanish languages:)
