United Kingdom, UK, Great Britain... Just rambling

To me UK is pretty safe and civilized. I can walk around on my own without fear or anyone bothering me at all. Some staring at times probably due to something awkward I do or my skin colour or my hijab but nothing malicious so far. Common sense prevails, of course, by keeping all my cash and documents in safe places and not straying into dodgy area or wherever my gut told me not to. Gut feelings sometime save lives, if you feel uncomfortable or unsafe, get the hell out fast. Still, I feel less wary and afraid than in my own country where anytime I can get mugged (happened in a cafe to me) or potentially raped / killed.
