Copenhagen was actually my first overnight solo trip! It was a very good one for me. I felt very safe and I met nice people. I didn’t know what to expect when i first planned the trip😊but it turned out so well

I just returned from my first solo trip to Copenhagen, followed by a day trip to Malmö. Copenhagen was packed with things to do, and it was a blast, though it was definitely the priciest place I’ve visited in Europe. Malmö, which is just a 50 minute buss ride away, was much more relaxed. There aren’t many attractions or activities, but the sea is absolutely stunning. You’ll find benches everywhere, perfect for sitting and soaking in the view. After burning myself out with 40,000 steps a day in...

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...

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.

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.

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.

Amazingly safe place for women! You can bike home from the dance floor in the middle of the night and feel safe 🌟 Catcalling and harassment is very uncommon. All of Denmark, it’s very safe to be a female solo traveler
Posted: April 13, 2026One of the safest cities in the world. No danger of thieves. Catcalling might be a problem in the nightlife, just always remember never be alone incase something happens. Daytime is safe just about everywhere. There are sketchy alleys but they are no where around the usual touristy areas so nothing to be afraid of. If you bike just make sure to know the rules, or it might be scary.

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.

Hiii! I'm Brazilian and have been living in The Netherlands for 4 years :) I share a flat with my (Swedish) girlfriend and we often travel together. I'm a political economist with interest in sustainability and feminist theory/literature/organizing! I'm not super much the party type but you can always convince me to go to a costume party or karaoke. I am super affectionate and love sharing moments with friends, old or new I do quite a lot of hitchhiking and couchsurfing and that's my usual preferred form of traveling! I live up to the latina standard, which means I am super warm and get a lot of energy from socializing and meeting new people.
