Unfortunately the city is very expensive, but I felt very safe, even in the evening. I went for the Christmas markets, and the city was very welcoming and charming. You should keep in mind that there are many people during this period, but the city is quite well organized.

Unforgettable one during the Christmas. Won’t be my last time. Coming back again during the Summer. Travel for Solo female travelers. If you are Aesthetic person, Vienna is definitely for you :))) Left my heart there

Travelling alone in Vienna I felt really safe! I never experience night life in this case however I did everything by foot including walking home alone when it started to be nighttime and I always felt good. Museums are great, many stuff to see about Klimt, the city is really pretty, the churches and parks too; however coming from France the *french* bakery looked catastrophic from the outside😂

It was a really nice trip. I could admire the beautiful architecture of Vienna, I especially loved the Hundertwasserhaus, since he's a very admirable architect with a beautiful and inventive mind. but. one is for sure. The prices are overwhelming. I also didn't like the bus system. It was almost impossible to pay with card even when the system said otherwise

Graz is pretty safe there are some areas like Gries and Lend and around the main train station that arent as safe at night but comparable with other cities its still safer there! Just dont get into any altercations and try not to talk to the people at main train station at night

You can run into some shady figures at night but it's usually safe even if you're alone. There are some areas that make you feel a little uneasy like the park in front of the main station or when you exit it at the lower level past the bakeries, but personally

I would say it‘s really safe. I walked home in the middle of the night so many times and never had any problems or felt unsafe. I mean it also depends on where you are but I haven’t felt unsafe.

Villach is a rather conservative city, but still safe for going out there alone at night. I still recommend telling someone local where you are, where you are going and calling them on your way home.

I can walk at night without being harassed. When i see someone at night i am usually left alone and people keep to themselves. Of course certain spots attract more dangerous people but i never had issies in the 5th district.

About me
Heyy! I’m Aylin, 24 years old, and I quit my job in August 2024 to travel the world.🌍 I’m always curious about new countries and cultures. I’m a nature lover, a foodie, and always up for a little adventure! So far, this journey has brought me some unforgettable moments—like seeing Angkor Wat in real life or diving with sharks in the Philippines. But honestly, my favorite memories come from the amazing locals I’ve met along the way, who welcomed me into their everyday lives and gave me a deeper understanding of their culture.✨ I’m a mix of adventure-seeker and quiet soul. I love meaningful conversations and genuine connections, though I’m also quite introverted and appreciate some quiet time now and then. Partys and alcohol are not my thing. I’d describe myself as empathetic, respectful, easygoing, and tidy. Looking forward to connecting with like-minded travelers!🌞
