Your experience is not everyone else’s. Don’t assume they are lying.

It’s tough because almost every trip I’ve done solo has been amazing except turkey, where a man assaulted me, and Zanzibar where I felt very unsafe often. I don’t want to discourage people from traveling to these places because they’re beautiful and many people travel there and have no problems AND I don’t think we should paint solo travel with rose colored glasses

I mean the smart way to talk about this would be “level of risk exposure,” but it’s not like people really understand what odds of stuff happening in a day are, and what chances they would tolerate.

I’m sorry that happened to you. Having said that, I’ve traveled to 38 countries solo or with my 2 kids; and never once have I felt unsafe, in any of them 🤷♀️

What does this have to do with Mexico City or traveling alone? What is the purpose of this post?

I love this nuance. When I travel solo v with my husband v my best friend the options are different for what works for safe travel. We need more nuance in travel conversations without demonizing places or cultures.

I don’t want to travel solo for this reason, but I don’t exactly have friends either. 😔

I was told the United States was completely safe, yet someone tried to open my hotel’s room door, and I was followed several times by very suspicious men while shopping at a supermarket, among other things.
The point is that every destination has its risks. That’s why it’s so important to do your own research instead of blindly following advice from random TikTokers. Read official travel advisories, look at crime statistics, watch documentaries, and use reliable travel guides. People should make informed decisions before they travel.

Ah shit so sorry you went through that. Sometimes as a guy I get so psyched when talking about my next trip I don’t realize how lucky I am to be able to travel solo without fear of sexual assault. Glad to hear it didn’t stop you from wanting to continue traveling. Wishing you better travels sister!

yep. there's a difference between overly limiting yourself from fear and not recognizing risks exist and doing what you can to protect yourself (although sometimes there's only so much you can do)

I literally had a Professor from Mexico City and he told me I should visit there but not to go alone and absolutely not go out at night
