I had a brief but memorable stop in Lucerne for about 3-4 hours during my trip. I spent most of the time walking around the city, enjoying the beautiful scenery. We had a snack by the river (highly recommend it, though it’s a bit pricey—well, that’s Switzerland for you). I also tried some ice cream, and I still remember how one scoop cost 4 euros! For me, that’s a huge difference, since in Ukraine, 4 euros could buy you 4-6 scoops. However, the scoop was as big as my fist, and it was delicious! We also took a stroll to the famous flower-covered bridge, listened to some musicians, and then headed to another city. Lucerne left a stronger impression on me than Zurich. The people were friendly, even the tourists (unlike in Zurich, where I didn’t feel as comfortable with the younger crowd).
Posted: January 3, 2025I visited Lucerne and it was beautiful, I highly recommend it. I also went up the Pilatus mountain for a half-day trip from Lucerne and it was equally beautiful there (you can go up the mountain by cable car or train).

Pilatus - Go on a lake cruise - Visit the Old Town - Swim in the lake Safety: I was there in June and I was traveling alone, I felt completely safe.

It is a pretty safe place to be. The people are friendly and will help you. Sometimes at night some drunk people are walking around at the trainstation butbif you ignore them and just wait at the designated place for your bus, they'll mind their own buissnes.
Posted: March 16, 2025Lucerne is really safe for women in my opinion. I get a bit paranoid after dark sometimes. But weird people exist everywhere of course, but here you don‘t really have to worry about a lot of things.

Hey Girls Because I love mountains I moved to Switzerland. Every free sunny minute I spend paragliding, hiking, skitouring, climbing or swimming in the lake. As a doctor I have to work a lot but take time off regularly to travel the world and enjoy life. This summer I‘m going to Alaska for paragliding and hiking/backpacking and am already looking forward to this adventure. I am happy to welcome you in Lucerne and share local’s knowledge, especially about the mountains around ;) Looking forward to meeting you, Cheers, Julia

Hello! My name is Elise and I am an experienced traveler and have also lived and worked abroad for many years as an English language teacher. I lived in Asia from 2014-2023 and have been working remotely and slow traveling through Europe the last two years. I am finding new ways to travel that are a bit friendlier on the wallet and am trying to broaden my horizons when it comes to meeting people while traveling. I often travel solo and am looking to explore more friendships along the way. I have a lot of experience staying with hosts and am very respectful, friendly, intuitive and helpful. I can be quiet in the beginning but am very open to friendly conversation when initiated and will open up quickly once trust is established. If you are okay, I am okay 😊. I hope I can meet some nice ladies on here that are open and down to earth. **Photos on my profile are only of the most recent places I have been which is Murcia, Spain and the southern coast of England…in Hastings and Brighton, East Sussex as well as York and Whitby in North Yorkshire. ** I don’t have social media. 😎
