I’ve been to NY for 10 days, a lot of attractions to enjoy and interesting activities to do. Lot of things to discover also.. the city that never sleeps. I definitely will go in the future, but it is very expensive.

I have spent 10 days in Miami and I feel after a week, you feel bored.. I am nt denying that Miami can be very intersting also, but not as much as other cities. the most attractive activity is going to the different beaches, on my humble opinion.

Orlando, Couple travel
In Orlando I only spent time going to amusement park for Disney and Universal. I spent almost no time in the city, so I cannot say I’ve been to Orlando. But I can say that it is worthy the different parks.

I come here to visit my friend who recently moved here for a new job. Sometimes, when she is at work, I like to walk around the city by myself. I always feel very safe and I have a wonderful time. When I go out with her and her roommates for karaoke and drinks, we always have a blast.

Exercise normal precautions. Stay where the people are. Do not get too inebriated by alcohol or drugs if you are alone at night. I'd say avoid being alone at night in areas where there are few people around, but that's my rule for any new place that you're not familiar with.

Pretty safe, never felt threatened, main street is the busiest area, always people out there, i don't have anymore to add to that actually, coffeshops are also very nice and the beaches too, people are nice

In these areas and some others there will be lots of homeless people some are nice and some are crazy and violent. There are also break-ins to people’s cars or gang violence. Just try to avoid these areas but in general it’s safe to have your phone out or talk to strangers especially in the day time.

It’s fairly safe. It’s a busy city so a lot of people are out. I will say that people do mind their own business tho so when there is trouble it can be kind of a gamble. Ofc staying out late can be unsafe unless you’re with people.

It’s fairy safe. I would walk around at night alone though. And stay out of downtown by myself. There’s lots of homeless people.
