South Lake Tahoe, Solo travel
Fourteen hours on the road, countless stops, and views that didn’t feel real. Driving around the entire Lake Tahoe, watching the sun set over the water, and taking in the stillness made this trip unforgettable. Sometimes all you need is nature, a long drive, and a reminder of how beautiful life can be. 🫶🏽✨

I was very scared before I visit New York because New York is very very big city. And also, I heard many criminal things that happened in in New York City so I was quite scared because I was traveling alone for the first time, but actually there were some bad people on the street but when I go through them, it was not quite dangerous and oppositely. There were many people who are traveling that city all time so I feel comfortable with them . There are lots of stores open at late night, so I can use them whenever I want and also there are many things to do alone in the city so it was not hard...

I have been several times to PCB! This time in particular was for Thunder Beach, a motorcycle rally. They have a lot designated for vendors, you can have sound systems installed, view bikes for sale, a bike show, lots of apparel like vests and boots, and plenty of fun people dressed up!

Sacramento
Sacramento (California’s capital) has safety challenges, especially compared with many U.S. cities — but experiences can vary widely depending on neighborhood and personal habits. Like every other city there’s pros and cons. Sacramento has been safe for me as a person that explorers solo out in the nature.

Manhattan is a pretty kind place. Its a college/military town so make sure you're in groups and don't go home drunk with men you don't want to. People are friendly everywhere and my favorite part about living here is that most people are transplants so you'll fit in pretty easily.

About me
Hi my name is Athena and I'm visiting Belgium for the first time to volunteer on local organic farms! I love having language exchange and cultural exchange experiences! I also love the idea of this women-supported community that can bring people off other social media and reduce services like Airbnb that drive up local housing prices.
