Thessaloniki, Solo travel
I love my trips to Thessaloniki, with my friend group there we go to bars and on hikes. I've been seeing them every summer and will always recommend and prefer this city over any touristic island in Greece

The food and hotel service was amazing. I really enjoyed the view and food. People weren't as nice as they wete in Kavala but still Greek people are kind in general. Locals usually know English so you won't struggle with communication. I recommend eating seafood in Greece.

I love greece and I've been several times since but Crete was one of my previous travel.I went with my family and it's still a really good memory I have. Good food, cats, warm and welcoming people and of course good meteo and landscapes.

Athens
Athens at night can be dangerously especially it these areas: Omonia, Monastiraki, Sepolia, Menidi, Kypseli, Victoria, Kolonos. Especially if you are a girl unfortunately you need to be very careful and to stay always in big open areas not small neighbourhood’s streets
Posted: April 21, 2026Athens
Athens is relatively alright except for these areas. I know that hotels/rbnb's/hostels in these areas may seem cheap but there's a reason for that. I would rather pay a bit more and stay at a place where I can walk safely at night. As a person who has family in some of these areas if you can avoid them at night do it.
Posted: April 18, 2026Thessaloniki
Thessaloniki is generally safe by day, but please avoid Dendropotamo at all hours. By night, Thessaloniki can be a bit more scary. If you don't know the places, avoid small narrow (often without lights) streets and very wide streets in desolated places. West areas of Thessaloniki are generally considered more dangerous after midnight.

Kozani is very safe it's a very small town or a big village it depends how you see it 😀 😅You can walk alone and none will hurt you.

About me
Hi! My name is Maria I am an easy going person with a lot of humour and a healthy craziness. I currently live in Kozani Greece. I like travelling and I prefer hosting because I think it is safer to have another woman having your back. I am a digital nomad and here in Kozani I am the last 2 months, before I was in Thessaloniki. I love travelling and with my job I can do it easily. I would love to host you and discover Kozani together or maybe you could host me at my next travel. I have a dog as well that I love very much and we are always together so it is necessary to love dogs

Hi beautiful people!!🌙I'm a film student, really into arts and politics. I love nature and also the street culture. I decided I have to explore the world (inner and outer) so that to remember all the important things we've forgotten. It's nice we can help each other in feeling safe (as capitalism is killing us). Im from the island Crete, now living in Thessaloniki. If you need a place to stay in both places, send me a message, I would love to meet you and showing around or suggest u local (non touristic) places 💗 🇵🇸🏴☠️🧜🏼♀️🦌🦔🌱

Hi, I am Andriana and I am 18 years old. I finally finished school and now I am ready to explore the beauty of every country! I love meeting new friends and to discover new hidden places around the word (and of course to capture them in my old camera). Now that I finished school, I am learning german in my university (of phycology). Thus, I really really want to go to Germany or Austria or Switzerland in order to practice my german. If anyone lives in these countries, I really want to chat with you so as to meet you in the future☺️

Hello girls! I am Greek and of course it's cheaper to travel abroad rather than Greece! I am 20 yrs and I am Chemical Engineer student in Thesssaloniki.
