New York, Couple travel
Only in New York for short amount of time, was a stop in between airport to cruise terminal. What was seen of it was beautiful, the La Guardia Airport is huge and has so many things to browse at. Overall the airport was fair in manners but the taxi ride back to the airport from cruise terminal was outrageous! Note: make sure to verify with driver how much cab ride will be in total before entering car!

Glacier National Park, Solo travel
It was so beautiful I am planning to go back! I cant wait to see all the beauty again. I highly recommend training your body to do daily hikes of moderate intensity for 15miles. The food at the lodges was amazing! You can eat at the lodge while staying at the near by campgrounds.

Beautiful clean city with not too much to do. Coming from New York everything closes early unless you’re into sports bars… which not my thing personally. Many great restaurants and views, and many shows that go on.

I live in NY and very close to the City and it’s truly a one of a kind place, I’ve been to many major US cities and no one really does it like New York. The best food, culture, parties, museums and a place where dream come to happen.

Fairbanks, Solo travel
I recently traveled to Fairbanks as my solo graduation trip. I took the trip in effort to catch northern lights. The trip was very beautiful and unreal. The city was very safe and found good food too. The experiences were amazing including; northern lights viewing, snow hike, cultural museum, hot spring, snowmobile and dog sledding. People were friendly too and made many new friends.

San Diego County
San Diego is a solid choice if you want a city that feels relaxed, outdoorsy, and safe. Most neighborhoods are calm and walkable, especially during the day and some areas need a bit more awareness, especially late at night

Ojai is an incredibly safe little town. I’ve lived here my whole life and raised my daughter here. It’s very community-oriented, with kids walking around, families everywhere, and a real sense of ease and care. It truly is a magical place to live.

Fairly safe, does consist of many dangerous places when night falls, few minor dangerous places in the day as well. Try to avoid Charlotte downtown during dark hours, Salibsury during night time, and Fayetteville.

Tampa
Tampa is safe if you stay in the touristy areas or the recently renovated areas. Always travel with friends if you are new to the area or visiting. Stay away from areas like East Ybor, Courier City, and Florence area. Especially at night stay in groups and don’t go home with anyone you don’t know.

Orlando
As long as you stay in populated tourist areas it's safe. Local areas can be more dangerous depending on the area and how your traveling. Public bus transportation is not the best way to travel. The SunRail is clean and nice to travel on from Orlando to Miami.

About me
I’m semi retired at 55 and want to see the world. I leave the country 4-6 months at a time so explore. The last two years I’ve lived in Italy, France, England and recently Spain. I like to stay months at a time in one place to sen the culture and get to know the areas well. I’m not sure who has the availability to do this but my home is open these time to guests. I’m based in Orlando, close to all you would want to experience in Orlando and the local beaches. Anyone who what’s information on how to travel like do or would be interested in traveling along with me, reach out. Anyone intested in swaps of homes or short term rental, let me know. I looking forward to meeting g and talking to like minded explorers.
