We forgot to check into the hotel room so our room was canceled, but we went to some random motel and still felt safe. We went for my birthday and it was such a great girls trip. We got into the water in McCloud river and it was great!

I was for two weeks camera acting workshop in there. I lived close to the Walk of Fame area. But my favorite place was Venice Beach, Santa Monica and Beverly Hills. There is a lot of homeless people and every morning you can smell weed. But it was great experience

I moved to Baton Rouge for love and it has been a super fun and eventful experience so far. The food is always so good. The people here can be a bit rude at times but typically are very welcoming and good to be around :).

Safe community! Sometimes we have crimes from Chicago residents coming through at the bars at 2-3am but plenty of dive bars and safe places if you are interested in the night life. Avoid areas by Coe college and St Luke’s hospital.

It’s pretty safe from my experience. There’s nothing to do though unfortunately, I love the farmers market on the weekends but that’s more like Newark area, library and Suju cafe(Stevenson blvd) are probably my most hangout spots.

Los Angeles is relatively safe for a city in the US. Unlike other countries like Korea or China the US can have more crime in certain areas. You defintely want to be careful. Again, it all depends on the area.

Tucson is not the most dangerous place to live, we have a big houseless problem right now and I don’t pass any bias to those individuals, but they are also desperate and especially being a woman walking around at night i’ve personally had a lot of encounters with them and times call for desperate measures. I also think that there is a rise in gun violence in Tucson something to look out for

My name is Lucia I'm from Seattle a single mom of 3 (2 still at home). I joined because eventually I want to travel. But until I'm ready I want to host. I love sharing my city and home.
