What a beautiful spot!! The rich history, architecture, and vegetation are delightful. There are many options to explore, and it’s all very walkable. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed visiting. Everyone I met who has been loved it!!

I LOVED Las Vegas!! I mostly explored the “nature” side of things, but the Strip definitely did not disappoint. It wasn’t at all like I expected! I felt very comfortable and in awe of the grandeur. I would definitely go again.

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.

Normal United States in my opinion. Carry yourself per usual and treat others how you would like to be treated. Locations don’t matter when people anywhere can lash out or cause problems or issues. Be safe!

Houston has one of the largest trafficking operations in the US. Many girls go missing, please take extra safety when you go. They usually use other females to lure you in. People are running scams EVERYWHERE. If it sounds too good to be true, it is.

There are some bad apples here despite how wonderful and pretty it is. Anyone in the drug scenes can be sketchy. I have a restraining order on one local who frequents downtown. Keep your drink covered and belongings close if you go to the bars.

Chicago is generally safe but you should stay aware of your surroundings. Crime can happen anywhere especially in a big city. There is a good amount of police presence and I have no problem walking around the city by myself. Sometimes there are people with mental health issues or petty crime so just stay aware. You can walk around during the day, party at night, but stay in the Northside. Anywhere from the Loop (including South and West loop) to Lakeview is generally fine. Avoid going further...

About me
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 personally started traveling when I was young through Mexico seeing the pyramids and the rich culture of my country inspired me to travel outside when i could. I could give you recommendations for Mexico and help you with your Spanish. Nos vemos! ☺️. If you’re ever in Chicago let me know!
