Lübeck (the next town to where I live) is pretty small and relaxed. People are normally very friendly here and not frowning at all, like its often portraied. And when the sun is out, everyone is outside and just enjoying life

It's a small city and in the week when it gets dark in the main city you can't find many people out in the streets anyways. I had good experiences because I was even invited into a private bar when I was roaming the empty streets at 2 in the morning, in there were nice people and not even intoxicated people.

Pretty safe if you don't go to the bad parts (outskirts) of the city. Honestly just try to stay near the city centre, in a rich neighbourhood or go to Travemünde, which is both very nice and safe. As in every bigger city, stay more alert when it's dark, but that's just a normal safety measure in every city

Very Safe Like other cities in northern germany. Some regions I would Not Like to walk during the night but you would Not visit there usually anyway. City centre feels good. Way safer than Hamburg or Berlin.

About me

I was a passionate host at couchsurfing.com for many years in Hamburg and Cologne until big C presented the big break for all of us. I seized the break to move to Lübeck and create a lovely place for me in this beautiful city next to the baltic sea. Now I am at a point to welcome guest again and make them feel home and cosy in my "HerzZuhause". I work full time in a kindergarden, as volunteer in a social and antifascistic Venue for concerts and Partys, called TreibsAND and a Thingsforfreeshop called "KostNix" both at the Walli, Willy-Brandt-Allee 9-11 in Lübeck. Because of my experiences during my couchsurfing times I have some simple House roules to stabil the cosyness for everybody... If you would like to stay at my place, let me know in a friendly message and I will answer you soon.

About me

Hey, I'm Jülide. I love talking to new people. I also like talking about spiritual matters. I'm currently learning more English. When we talk in English, I tend to be a bit more reserved because of the language. I love animals and nature too.
