I have never had any issues or reasons to be scared. The only issue is stealing but if you are careful with your things it should be fine. Bicycle theft is kind of famous in Osijek so lock your bicycles!

Osijek is a very safe town, when I go out in the streets during daytime, I don’t feel a bit scared, I am also not scared when I go out to the club, or go home in the night, or even in the sunrise. The buildings are really safe, and the residents never share safety numbers to anyone, even friends. The apartments and hotels, as I heard from people coming here, are also a safe place. I never felt my house could be broken in, or that i could be assaulted in the streets. Of course there are some dangers, like youngsters speeding in their vehicles, or drunk people in clubs, but they’re a rarity.

As a student I feel safe leaving my dorm alone, even at night. People are normal here, everyone minds their buisness so there is not much to worry about. Unless you intentionaly provoke someone I think you are safe 100%. :)

Hello friends! My name is Mera, I'm 22 y/o, I'm a dancer and psychology student from Croatia 🇭🇷 When I'm not attending college I'm working summer jobs at the coast of Croatia and making small travel trips.🚞 I always had a wish to travel the world and I figured early twenties are a perfect time to start! My favourite trip so far was spending 9 days in Morocco in a surf&yoga camp 🏄‍♀️🧘‍♀️ I'm an active girl, nature-lover and explorer, looking to be hosted by anyone who is willing. I don't smoke, drink or consume any supstances I offer help around your home, free yoga sessions, and good quality time😊 I'm polite and quiet if I have to be haha If we click as friends I'd be more than happy to have you show me around your city, but I'm also happy to solo explore 🧭
