I’m living just outside Copenhagen, and yesterday I randomly decided to do a one-day solo trip into the city… best decision honestly 🫶 I started at the Royal Library, walked through the garden behind it, then made my way along Strøget (literally my favorite part cuz all the cute shops?? I was obsessed), passed by Kongens Nytorv, Nyhavn, and ended up chilling by the Opera House. For coming back to the metro I hopped on one of the water buses, the same station in front of the Opera House, which...

Copenhagen is a City you fall in Love with in the Summer. Definitely walkable & I rarely took the metro/train. Only to further out areas :) And it's super safe here, very very safe. I never felt uncomfortable to walk at night. Butgenerally I take an Uber anyway to go home when it's late.

Heyy lovelies🫶🏼 I was in CPH for 5 days over my birthday and it was very enjoyable. The sights were very nice, it’s a great place for a city trip even with family. If you’re looking to do lots of sights and museum tour, you should book the Copenhagen card. You pay a fixed price and can get into many sights for free. But there’s a calculator for that to see if it makes sense for you. Very recommended my me and my fam🫶🏼

Went there with my family and we had an absolute blast! I definitely recommend renting a bicycle for a day (we used Donkey Republic which is very popular throughout the coty & you can do everything in an app) and visiting Superkilen park as well as riding across Cirkelbroen, Cykelslangen and other bridges on bike. I promise they are a lot of fun to bike even if you normally don't enjoy riding a bicycle very much (like me and my family)! Plus you can also reach further away places you want to...

Copenhagen is quite a safe city, both during the day and night. Of course, you have to be alert at times, especially with drunk people, but I wouldn’t say it is very dangerous. You can bike through the city at night and the crime level has been going down.

Herning is a safe city! I have never experienced anything unpleasant in my city. If someone has experienced something unpleasant, I would think it is because they have been involved in something. If you are just visiting the city, there is nothing to be nervous about in my opinion!

I often read on the news about injustice in the police force and women being assaulted. I haven’t experienced it myself here yet though. I love the city but live close to one of the dangerous areas but I’d still advice to not go near

This is a very safe city, I have been living here from Jan 2026 and will be here till May 2026. I have not felt unsafe, but I am decently tall so in case that factors in. Of course always be aware of your surroundings but generally there is not a lot of theft or cat calling and Danes believe strongly in social responsibility so great place to be a solo traveler just expensive.

About me
Hi everyone, thanks for stopping by. I'm excited to meet new people and learn about new cultures. I'm always available for a quick chat or to explore around town. I love concerts, discovering new restaurants, and good comedy nights. My birthday is in June. I still haven't decided what to do this year. Any suggestions? I would love to hear them! 🥰 I'm traveling this year to Germany (Berlin), Norway (Oslo), France (Paris), and other places. I would love to connect with people from these places.

About me
I'm a 20 year-old psychology student, doing Erasmus in Denmark and looking to travel around Europe. I do not put any rules on my travels because "You only live once" and I feel like it's worth the risk if the experience has a potential to be memorable and enjoyable.
