About
Delhi-born, Delhi-stuck, Delhi-proud. I have done every iteration of the North India loop a tourist tries — Golden Triangle, Rajasthan circuit, Himalayan summer escape — usually solo, usually budget, always opinionated.
My strongest skill is matching destinations to people. Tell me what you do for fun in your city and I can usually tell you whether you should go to Rishikesh or Pushkar first. Bad at: anything south of Bangalore.

Cards by Leila
Lisbon
Portugal
Lisbon is one of Europe's safest cities for solo women — harassment is uncommon and violent crime is genuinely rare.
Kolkata
India
Kolkata is one of India's safest cities for solo women — the street culture is genuinely different.
Delhi
India
Delhi Metro is your best friend — safe, AC, women-only coaches on every train.
Recent answers
Born-and-raised Delhi sister here. The fear about Delhi is partly warranted and partly exaggerated. Happy to give anyone a realistic breakdown by neighbourhood, time of day, and what kind of traveller you are. Ask me anything.
