About Me

I'm a freelance UX and service designer, currently community manager for a small non-profit. I enjoy solo travel as an introvert, going at my own pace and planning my day, but sometimes miss sharing experiences and adventures with others. I tend to stay in boutique hostels with female dorms or Airbnbs. (I'm always up for sharing accommodation or rentals!) I'm a foodie (vegetarian), coffee lover, culture vulture, love urban photography and just coddiwompling around. I don't drink much (maybe socially) and am not a party person. I kind of had an existential/early mid-life crisis during the pandemic, feeling like I'm missing out on life and what if the next year brings something even worse!? So I cancelled my lease in London and went travelling. As a millennial I'm unlikely to but my first home any time soon, and 50% off my income went on rent, so in order to save up (and work part time for my mental health), I'm house and pet-sitting. My itinerary: ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡น Portugal until 15.5. ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ฆ Spain 18.5.-1.7. ๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‡ป Denmark 1.7.-20.7. ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ช Sweden 20.07.-22.7. ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง UK 29.7.-24.8. ๐Ÿ‡ญ๐Ÿ‡ท Croatia 24.8.-20.9. If you'd like to follow along with my trips, you can find me on Instagram ๐Ÿ“ท @coddiwomplingdumpling โœ๏ธ Also!

Solo travel experience

I went traveling around Italy, and Hungary and then to Vienna. Italy felt safe depending on the city I was in, Venice for sure was lovely and felt safe. Milan I didn't feel safe at all alone and witnessed a fair bit of crime. Hungary I felt safe during the day although at night I found it could become a little more intimidating. I had a few issues but I would still gladly go back by myself. Vienna was definitely the safest place by myself! Everybody was so friendly - I never felt nervous!

Solo travel experience

I spent 9 weeks in Europe. The only trip I booked was a 15-day small sailing trip from Venice to Dubrovnik, rest was Airbnb in Venice, Korcula, Split Ljubljana, Lake Bled, and Zagreb. I went on 3-day trips, Postojna Caves, Plitvice Lakes and a gorge ( can't remember the name- but it was amazing). Had no problems. I booked the accommodation before I went, no issues, felt very safe and had a brilliant time. 9 weeks just wasn't long enough.
