Love the chickens and shops- food is great, deals to be found and my friend and I did Waikiki beach and a hostel no issues ( other than losing a shoe š). The donuts and poke are unreal. It is loud, but the transit is great and the beach is nice. ļæ¼

I recently visited New York and absolutely loved the experience! It was amazing to explore the city, see all the iconic places, try new food, and just enjoy the atmosphere. Iād definitely love to go back and discover even more of the city! š½āØ

Lots of historical culture, loved the architecture. Easy to get around if you had your phone to navigate. Felt safe there. Had the clam chowder, went to the Harbor, Boston market . Lots of pubs everywhere.

Sedona is famous for its stunning red rock landscape and spiritual energy. Chapel of the Holy Cross is fascinating. So many hiking points and jeep safari to Broken Arrow and Tlaquepaque Arts & Shopping Village must see.

I took the Maid of the Mist boat ride. Being so close to the falls and getting soaked was intense. It really makes you respect nature and how powerful the water flow is. I had a great time! I wish I had taken the tour behind the falls. Maybe next time.

Had a really good time. The traffic is insane. But the food is so goooood! We did meet a lot of nice people and enjoyed the nightlife scene as well. Safety wise make sure to practice your basic safety precautions and youāll be fine.

The most magical trip I have ever taken in my life with very best friend and my parents!š¢The water was breathtaking and the views were like something straight out of a movie. I only had three days there but it was so amazing I would love to go back and stay for several weeks.

I went to Detroit for an exchange program during college and lived there for eight months. The city itself doesnāt have a ton of things to do, but the activities it does have are really interesting, especially when you consider the cityās history.

Hey! I just visited Nashville Tennessee, and I absolutely loved it! The city never sleeps live music can be heard almost 24 hours a day, and every weekend, they close the main Broadway route to cars, turning it into a lively, walkable music center. At night itās a real party! You can walk into almost any music bar free and just enjoy the live performances. There are also plenty of tourist attractions, including museums and old fashioned trolley rides or you can simply take a walk around...

Is United States safe for women?
Saint Johns County
Overall safe, I feel very protected and comfortable as a black woman. Itās mostly a retirement area for older individuals but there are a few younger couples with families.

The city has its safer pockets but if you are aware of your surroundings and normal safety precautions, that should be more than enough to feel comfortable in most areas. Most non-residencial areas have a lot of monitoring from cameras and drones to security and law enforcement. People can be kind enough but can also be quite individualistic so donāt count on help from random strangers or even some public employees as plan A.

Thereās a college so thereās a lot of young people! I feel safe leaving my house at night and walking anywhere in Logan! But I still feel itās always smart to be cautious no matter where you are! But the biggest thing would be just donāt leave car unlocked! And donāt hike the mountains to late!

Totally quiet, beautiful, and super peaceful! The beaches are clean, safe, and perfect for walking while watching the sunset. People here are very friendly and welcoming. It feels completely comfortable to explore the area on your own without any worries."

West Glacier is incredibly safe, human wise. All you wanna watch out for is bears!! The crime level is actually 61% LOWER than the national average here. The surrounding towns are relatively safe as well.

Stick to touristy areas and donāt walk alone in quiet areas at night and you will be fine. Car break ins can be a concern especially in touristy areas. Pickpockets are relatively uncommon but do keep an eye on your belongings.
