I am a 19 year old male, and in August I will be embarking on my first trip without someone with me. I am going to Germany to visit a friend for a few days, but then I will be going out on my own to explore. My mom approved of the trip, but now she is freaking out. I don't understand why We have traveled to Germany before, and we both felt very safe, even at night. And I can speak a good amount of German. But she seems to have forgotten that. She thinks I might get robbed or kidnapped, or worse. But I don't think so. I think Germany is much MUCH safer than anywhere in the US. So, is there anyway I can convince her that this won't happen to me? Also I'm visiting Leipzig and Dresden. Is there anything I should look out for in these cities, besides an occasional political demonstration? Sorry if that was a long read.
