Super fun and safe. Recommend the ice cream. Great first solo trip. Stayed right by Waikiki beach and was able to safely walk everywhere at all times. Did several excursions will say it’s a lil expensive but overall so worth it.

I’ve been to Cleveland before multiple times (I’m from the broader “Cleveland Area”) and there’s so much to do and see. I especially love going downtown but never at night. There’s much to be desired about safety for women’s sake at night.

A solo trip to San Diego with my dog felt like the perfect reset. The city is super dog friendly, so we spent our days at the beach, exploring Balboa Park, and relaxing at outdoor cafés. People were incredibly friendly and always stopped for long conversations because of my dog so it never felt lonely. The only downside was the tiny parking spots and expensive parking fees.

I went with a group of friends and there was always something to do! Wether that be going ti the beach or walking doing all the shops. All of their nightlife is super cool to go and the variety of restaurants they have you can always find something to choose from.

I’ve been there a lot to take the gray hound at the bus station there, the area itself is kind of rough visually with some people looking a bit crazy however I have never ran into any issues with anyone personally! My sister works there and also has a decent time. Just stay safe and be alert!

Really safe during the day, usually safe at night, but would travel in groups of 2 or more on quieter nights when it’s not busy and there’s not as many people around. There’s some homeless men around that may try to talk to you, but in my experience, they’re not aggressive

Commonplace for shootings, car theft, assaults, gang violence and stabbings. Absolutely would avoid this area at all costs if possible. Definitely not safe to walk alone either especially at night. Theres a report basically every week on the news about violent crime here.

Really safe , never had issues honestly. Don’t know how else to fill the space hahahaha, I’m enjoying my time here so far! People need to prepare for sure just so they don’t get lost but that’s it. I love it

Hi I’m Jimena I’m American by nationality but ethnically proud Mexican solo female traveler currently on a trip around Europe I would love to use this experience to meet people and learn their culture. I can also would love to share stories of life and just experience the city through your eyes.

I could give you recommendations for Mexico and help you with your Spanish. Nos vemos! ☺️. If you’re ever in Chicago let me know!
