I felt safe during my stay. I was there for one year and visited with my friends the diffent cities (almost all of them hahaha) It's not an expensive country and transport is really cheap for international students, for example train tickets for 4€, 20 at most if you want to go to the opposite side of the country It's true that at night during winter there is absolutely no one, so I wouldn't go out at night alone, some catcalling here and there from drunken men depending on the street at night.

Wroclaw is a beautiful city! The Cathedral Island is definitely worth seeing. The city center has such cute buildings and it is a nice place to sit and take in the beauty. Also the little gnomes everywhere are adorable!
Posted: May 29, 2025I recommend „Hala Koszyki”. A food court which has the cousins from around the world. Everyone will find something for themselves. Old town is so so so pretty and the subway works really well. There’s a lot more to see like Muzeum Kopernika :)

Katowice is a mix of old factories and new buildings. I liked visiting museums and listening to music there. The city center is small and easy to walk around. My time in Katowice was fun and relaxing.

It's a small seaside town. Very beautiful. The forest and beach were breathtaking. And the food was good. I found an outdoor food restaurant and they had good prices. It was very safe, no problems at all. The host of the lodging was very kind. 10/10 experience.

Wrocław is a very safe city. I think you’ll find a lot of kind and helpful people there. That said, it’s still better to avoid dark alleys, areas far from the center, or parks after dark. And try to stay away from places where there aren’t many people around. I’ve lived in Wrocław for 7 years and I’ve never experienced anything dangerous, but sometimes you might come across someone who tries to bother you a little.
Posted: June 29, 2025Warsaw is quite safe overall. You know, of course I would be careful about walking alone during the night, but compared to other European cities, it is better. Unfortunately, if you are person of color, you have to be extra careful :( I am white, but my POC friends have told me about the racism they experienced and situations that made them feel unsafe
