Absolutely safe, people won't talk to you spontaneously on the streets except to help you or to ask you directions. You can dress as you want, you will only get a few stares but nothing more. I really like my country and its safety, especially in smaller town and villages.

Sion is a small town in Switzerland, one of the safest countries in the world. Most that happens are car accidents or when skiing. If you forget your phone or wallet somewhere no one would touch it so you can go back and get it, or someone will take it to the police station and they would call you. There are robberies but mostly in the main cities, bicycle or pickpocketing. In Switzerland, police registered a total of 432,000 offenses under the Criminal Code in 2019 (−0.2% compared with previous year), of which 110,140 or 25.5 percent were cases of thefts (excluding vehicles, −2.0%), and 41,944 or 9.7 percent were thefts of vehicles (including bicycles, −10.1%), 46 were killings and 161 were attempted murders. The number of cases of rape reported increased by 53 incidents or 8.5 percent over the previous year.

About me

Hi! I'm from Guatemala but I'm currently living in Switzerland. I'm a veterinarian, mostly see small domestic animals and exotic pets, but sometimes also cows and sheep/goats. I love horses but they are very delicate. I would love to go out, chat, have fun, maybe eat something or just see some places. I'm fun, original, carefree, relaxed, open minded, honest, objective, straight, agnostic, apolitical and demisexual. I dislike makeup, skirts, traffic, and to watch sports. I also have tattoos that don't show with my clothes on and I eat pretty much anything except insects and organs hahaha. I love Japanese and Taiwanese food, Italian and Latin food as well. Ramen, sushi, grilled meat, and gnocchi would be my favorite foods. I love to travel on my own so I can do the things I really want, especially being able to stay with locals to know new people and experience the culture better than going to a hotel, and also stay in a budget.
